by the City Compliance Inspector. A copy of the Grease Interceptor Permit Application, its cover letter, and a sample Food Service Wastewater Discharge Survey are provided in Appendix E.

7.2.1.3 Enforcement of Grease Ordinance
The City and District have established compliance criteria for businesses to implement the provisions of the Grease Ordinances. Some flexibility will be afforded to the implementation and initial FOG-removal performance of grease interception devices; however, blockages and any resulting spills caused by permitted and non-permitted facilities will still be subject to the extent of the Grease Ordinance’s enforcement section. Businesses are encouraged to consult with the City or District and follow the application and permitting process prior to purchasing, installing, and operating grease interception devices. Similarly, businesses should continually assess the condition and performance of active interception devices and make repairs and/or upgrades as warranted. Modifications to grease interceptor/trap systems or transfers in ownership or operation should be reported to the City or District and require the issuance of a new permit.

Performance of grease interception devices will be monitored on an annual basis by the City.

Inspection fees can be waived if the business demonstrates that FOG has been properly recycled.

7.2.2 FOG Source Control
The City and District have identified restaurants and businesses involved in food processing or preparation, also known as Food Service Establishments (FSEs), as known or potential FOG contributors to the City’s POTW. Following the adoption of the City’s Grease Ordinance, the City has undertaken a more aggressive FOG Source Control program, which is also on behalf of the District. The program is now conducted under the supervision of the Water/Sewer Program Coordinator who is a Certified Environmental Compliance Inspector.

Permitting and enforcement alone are not adequate to control the release of FOG into the sewer collection system and environment. To more fully understand and catalog known and potential pipe-blocking substance contributors, the City has created a database of all businesses that could potentially generate FOG. The database was created by field observation and the use of previous records obtained by City staff and it is updated on a regular basis. The database is connected to the City’s Geographic Information System (GIS System) so that it can be used to produce maps and store additional information for each FSE.

The City has approximately 70 FOG and auto shop (sand interceptor) permittees. Additional FSEs have been surveyed and it was determined that their operations did not warrant permit issuance or pretreatment facilities.

The City conducts periodic reviews of existing permits, business licenses, water utility accounts, and building permits to identify any potential sources of commercial and industrial wastewater that need to be part of the source control program. Businesses with high flowrates or that may be discharging pollutants of concern are asked to complete and submit an industrial survey/ waste discharge report which is then reviewed and assessed by the City. Based on the City’s current NPDES permit (Order No. R1-2024-0016), the City is required to conduct an Industrial Waste Survey (IWS in 2026. The last IWS was conducted by the City during the FY 2020/21.

CITY OF UKIAN AND UKIAH VALLEY SANITATION DISTRICT August 2025 | 35

SANITARY SEWER MANAGEMENT PLAN
The City and District will continue to issue permits to FOG generating facilities, ensure that each FSE adequately maintains its grease removal device and promote the engagement of pipeblocking substance BMPs distributed with the permit application.

7.2.3 Sanitary Sewer System Inspection
To identify and correct portions of the sewer collection system impacted by pipe-blocking substances, the entire sewer system is included in a routine annual preventive maintenance inspection and cleaning schedule.

CCCTV inspection is used as a part of the routine annual schedule to identify problem locations or areas with a high number of blockages caused by pipe-blocking substance. This task is described in more detail in SSMP Element 4.

FOG can accumulate at various points within the sewer collection system, generally within manholes and at pipe joints. Historically, the City has had problems with pipe-blocking substance accumulation on tree roots that have grown into the pipe system. When identified, these and other problem areas are added to the City’s Sewer Maintenance List discussed in Section 4.2.2.1 and included in Appendix C.

7.2.4 FOG Disposal Locations
FOG generated by private businesses is not allowed at the WWTP. Generally, businesses that comply with the provisions of the Grease Ordinances will capture FOG within a grease interceptor located outside the building or collect FOG within a grease trap located inside the building and then dispose of it in a waste bin.

Grease collected in disposal bins and interceptors are handled in two ways. Grease haulers collect grease from disposal bins or pump grease from grease interceptors and haul the grease to disposal facilities. Rendering companies generally collect grease from disposal bins and use the grease to produce biofuels, soap, tallow, and feed fat for animal feed. Service and disposal fees are common for hauling companies, with most providing on-demand or regularly scheduled services. Renderers’ fees are often low or provided at no charge, as FOG is used as a recycled commodity. Some rendering companies will pay restaurants for FOG.

Table 3 below provides a list of businesses that will contract with restaurants to service grease interceptors (Hauler – Interceptor), haul waste collected in designated waste bins (Hauler – Waste Bin), or collect FOG for processing and secondary use (Renderer). Rendering companies generally collect grease from designated waste bins, while some also pump from grease traps.

While a majority of businesses will contract with rendering and hauling companies to remove and reuse or dispose of FOG waste at offsite facilities, Redwood Oil Company and Aztec Grill have combined resources for the Ukiah Central Chevron gas station and Aztec Grill located at 605 East Perkins Street. Kitchen oil and grease collected from the Aztec Grill is used to create biodiesel fuel for the Chevron station.

7.2.5 Public Outreach
Public outreach and education are as important to protecting the POTW as maintenance and enforcement activities. The City and District recognize that an informed public understands the financial and environmental impacts of releasing pipe-blocking substances into the collection system and the requirements to comply with local ordinances. Residential FOG may cause increased maintenance costs for both residents and the City and can cause spills that endanger public health and can damage the environment. Current outreach activities are described below.

7.2.5.1 Russian River Watershed Association
The City is member of the Russian River Watershed Association (RRWA). RRWA works to promote cooperation and implementation of projects that protect watershed resources, restore fisheries and improve water quality and has developed a multi-year Residential Fats, Oils, and Grease (FOG) Source Control Program. This program is intended to increase public awareness of residential FOG-related issues and reduce the number of FOG related spills. Through this program, outreach materials including flyers, stickers, door-hangers, and grease scrapers have been distributed in residential areas (where FOG issues have caused spills) and at local markets, libraries, and education centers. A bi-lingual door-hanger titled “From the Pan to the Can” was created by RRWA and is used in the outreach program. The door-hanger includes a grease scraper and is reproduced in Appendix E. RRWA issued a press release on July 19, 2006, with the intent to raise public awareness of FOG. Since 2006, there have been several articles about FOG written by the RRWA and published in the Ukiah Daily Journal. A copy of the latest press release is provided in Appendix E.

7.2.5.2 Internet Resources
The City’s website (www.cityofukiah.com) is also a good public resource for policies regarding the permitting of grease interceptor devices within the City and the District.

8 SYSTEM EVALUATION, CAPACITY ASSURANCE AND

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS
This section of the SSMP discusses the City’s programs and activities to provide adequate capacity, including the recommended capacity improvement projects and capital improvements.

8.1 REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS FOR SYSTEM EVALUATION AND

CAPACITY ASSURANCE PLAN
The regulatory requirements for the System Evaluation, Capacity Assurance and Capital Improvements element of the SSMP are summarized as follows:
 Routine evaluation and assessment of system conditions;  Capacity assessment and design criteria;
 Prioritization of corrective actions; and
 A capital improvement plan.

8.2 SYSTEM EVALUATION

8.2.1 Review of Existing Sewer System Data

8.2.1.1 Wastewater Treatment Plant
The WWTP has been operated since 1958. With several WWTP upgrades completed throughout the years, most recently in 2009, the WWTP current capacity is to 3.01 mgd ADWF, 7.0 mgd PWWF for advanced water treatment, and 24.5 mgd PWWF for secondary treatment only. The primary reason for the difference between ADWF and PWWF is I&I into the collection system.

8.2.1.2 Sanitary Sewer System Master Planning
The last comprehensive Wastewater Collection System and Treatment Improvements study (1978 Wastewater Study) for the City and District was prepared by Kennedy Engineers in 1978.

Since its completion, this report has served the City and District as a Sewer Master Plan and includes an evaluation of the sewer system capacity through land use planning documents, analysis of existing (at 1977) and projected (at 2000) water and sewer characteristics and wastewater treatment requirements.

The study identifies areas of high ground water elevation located east of State Street and along Dora Avenue between Clay Street and Observatory Avenue that could be a source of high I&I; however, no major reductions in I&I were proposed within the 1978 Wastewater Study. At the study’s completion, the City decided to expand and improve its wastewater treatment plant to provide capacity for future anticipated flows.

The sewer collection system has experienced some spills in recent years primarily due to blockages in the collection system (e.g., debris, grease). Spills that occurred during the wet season (November through April) were likely exacerbated by hydraulic limitations in the system due to I&I, but this has not been confirmed through hydraulic modeling or a detailed I&I study.

In 2003, Brown and Caldwell prepared a flow monitoring study in conjunction with the City

CITY OF UKIAN AND UKIAH VALLEY SANITATION DISTRICT August 2025 | 38

SANITARY SEWER MANAGEMENT PLAN
Wastewater Treatment Plant Improvements Project titled Collection System Flow Monitoring Summary (2003 Flow Monitoring Study). The scope of the study was to identify areas with high I&I rates in the collection system. The program included measurements of rainfall at three rain gauges and flow depth and velocity at eight flow monitoring locations throughout the sewer collection system. The data was used primarily to determine peak dry weather flow (PDWF), PWWF, and associated I&I. Study results indicate that the central and northwest portion of the City (Basins 4 and 6) have relatively high system defects that should be addressed and corrected.

The City has been using the findings in the Study to prioritize rehabilitation and repairs projects in the collection system, as detailed in Section 8.5. A copy of the technical memorandum is available upon request.

The City has experienced a moderate population growth over the past years and does not anticipate capacity issues related to increased development in the near future. The City will continue to conduct maintenance and rehabilitation of its sewer system and continue making necessary improvements to ensure it maintains a reliable system for years to come.

8.2.1.3 Sanitary Sewer System Physical Inspection
As discussed in SSMP Element 4, beginning in 2006, the City started to assess the physical condition of the entire sewer collection system, including District facilities, by CCTV inspection performed by City personnel. Problem areas are generally repaired by City crews following identification during CCTV inspection. The City completed a first round of CCTV inspection in 2011.

8.2.2 Sanitary Sewer System Model Construction
The City maintains a GIS database with the horizontal geometry of the sewer system pipelines and manholes. This GIS database was used to build a model of the trunk lines between the WWTP and Ford Road. The model was prepared with the intent to characterize average dry weather flow (ADWF), PDWF, and PWWF in the backbone of the collection system. The model connects the trunk line to flow meter locations identified in the 2003 Flow Monitoring Study to convey cumulative flows from each sewerage basin into the model. Figure 25A-2 in the 2003 Flow Monitoring Study shows the model skeleton prepared for that study. That model skeleton generally corresponds to the portion of the collection system that was modeled for the SSMP shown in Figures 4 and 5. The SSMP model was constructed using MWH Soft H2OMap Sewer GIS

9.0, Update No. 3.

City and District record drawings were used to populate the GIS database and hydraulic model with rim and invert information. For areas with no record drawings, the City conducted a field survey to collect the applicable rim and invert elevations. The model includes approximately 5.5 miles of sewer pipes, with diameters ranging in size from 10 to 36 inches, and 69 manholes. Due to the small size of the modeled system, and limitations in the input flow data, the model was constructed as a static model. Future modeling efforts for the collection system will likely be accomplished with a dynamic model suited for an increased number of manholes and pipes.

SANITARY SEWER MANAGEMENT PLAN

8.2.3 Assessment of Flow Monitoring Data
The 2003 Flow Monitoring Study identified ADWF and PDWF, but was not able to accurately characterize PWWF as the flow monitoring effort did not capture a storm large enough to interpolate a 10-year, 24-hour design storm and associated I&I. Some assumptions were made regarding PWWF during construction of the hydraulic model for the SSMP; however, without further wet weather flow monitoring, conclusions regarding system performance during peak flow events would be incomplete. Additional wet weather flow monitoring will be necessary to estimate the flows associated with PWWF. Table 4 documents ADWF and PDWF.

Table 4. ADWF and PDWF
Basin ID AWDF (mgd) PDWF (mgd)
1 0.51 0.64
2 0.38 0.43
3 0.96 1.17
4 1.34 1.56
5 0.01 0.01
6 0.81 1.18
7 0.69 0.94
8 0.13 0.18
Total 4.83 6.11

8.2.4 Model Loading
ADWF and PDWF basin flows were input into the model manholes by distributing the flow proportionally over all the parcels in each basin and then identifying which of the modeled manholes each parcel would flow into. Parcels from the City’s GIS database were used for this analysis.

8.2.5 Model Results
The results of the trunk sewer modeling show that the current system capacity is adequate to convey current ADWF and PDWF, without surcharging of the pipes. Preliminary modeling identified certain areas in the Trunk Main where surcharging may occur during PWWF events; however, the analysis is limited at this time until further wet weather flow monitoring and hydraulic modeling are completed.

8.3 DESIGN CRITERIA
Through the modeling efforts described in this element, the City and District have identified the need to conduct further wet weather flow monitoring in order to better characterize hydraulic deficiencies in the collection system. Specific design criteria will be established following that future analysis. In the interim, certain design criteria are available to the City and District for design and planning purposes. These criteria include geometric and hydraulic design elements such as pipe sizes, materials, and alignment, material coefficient, and ratios for hydraulic capacity. These criteria are discussed below and in SSMP Element 5.

8.3.1 Pipe Material Coefficient
Pipe capacities depend on many factors including slope, pipe roughness, and the pipe shape. The Continuity equation and the Manning equation for steady-state flow are used to calculate flow in a sewer pipe. The Manning coefficient ‘n’ is a friction coefficient and varies with respect to pipe material, size of pipe, depth of flow, smoothness of pipe and joints, and extent of root intrusion. For sewer pipes, the Manning coefficient typically ranges between 0.011 and 0.017, with 0.013 being a representative value used for collection system master planning. A coefficient of 0.013 is used for pipelines of various materials and the full range of ages in the City’s collection system.

Other pipe capacity factors are dependent on system geometry (i.e., slope, pipe diameter).

These factors are described in the draft Standards of Practice included in Appendix D.

8.3.2 d/D Ratio
The design capacity of a pipeline is often determined by a set ratio of the design flow depth “d” to the pipeline diameter “D” or “d/D.” When designing gravity sewer pipelines, it is common practice to set flow depth criteria by the size of the pipeline. Design d/D ratios typically range from 0.5 to 0.9. The maximum capacity of gravity sewers occurs at a d/D ratio of about 0.9, but using 0.7 provides a safety factor for the potential buildup of solids before scheduled maintenance can occur, regardless of the pipe diameter.

Although a d/D ratio of 0.7 may be appropriate for new and future sewers, applying this maximum ratio to existing sewers may lead to an increased number of improvements that may not necessarily be needed. For this reason, existing sewers will be considered adequate if they flow at a d/D of 0.9 (essentially full) or less and deficient if the flows exceed the 0.9 ratio.

Exceeding the 0.9 ratio would indicate the pipeline is likely to surcharge. Capacity improvements identified for pipelines marginally exceeding the 0.9 ratio and in generally good structural condition will be considered a lower priority than projects where the d/D ratio exceeds 0.9 by a large margin.

8.4 PRIORITIZATION OF CORRECTIVE ACTIONS
The City and District have identified the need for additional flow monitoring, condition assessment, and hydraulic modeling for wet weather flows to provide a basis for the Sewer System Master Plan and for additional short- and long-term CIP schedules. The findings from condition assessments and capacity assessments are used to prioritize corrective actions,

CITY OF UKIAN AND UKIAH VALLEY SANITATION DISTRICT August 2025 | 43

SANITARY SEWER MANAGEMENT PLAN
consistent with the 2022 SSS WDR. This prioritization considers both the severity of the consequences associated with potential spills and the specific conditions under which hydraulic deficiencies occur.

Existing capacity concerns are prioritized over future potential concerns, as they present a more immediate risk of system failure and discharge. Among these concerns, those that occur during average dry weather flow conditions are assigned the highest priority, as they indicate a consistent and ongoing capacity limitation. Capacity issues observed under peak dry weather conditions are given a moderate priority, while those occurring only under peak wet weather conditions are considered a lower priority, reflecting their association with less frequent, storm events.

This approach ensures that the most critical and spill-prone deficiencies are addressed first, effectively reducing the risk of spills and protecting water quality and public health.

8.5 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN
The 2022 SSS WDR requires the capital improvement plan to include the following items:
 Project schedules including completion dates for all portions of the capital improvement program;
 Internal and external project funding sources for each project; and  Joint coordination between operation and maintenance staff, and Engineering staff/consultants during planning, design, and construction of capital improvement projects; and Interagency coordination with other impacted utility agencies.

The City maintains a budget document, breaking down allocated money for capital improvement projects posted on the City’s website at: https://cityofukiah.com/finance/ The City and District approve their annual budgets in June for the following fiscal year. The annual public utilities budget for the sewer utility provides financial support for sewer administration, construction and maintenance, City/District sewer services, and sewer CIP projects. The City’s wastewater division budget for 2026 is available on the City’s website (https://stories.opengov.com/ukiahca/published/AELPs0MVCK). Projections for 2027 and 2028 are also provided.

Currently, the City and District prioritize rehabilitation and replacement (R&R) projects based on historical sewer back-ups, visual inspection, and the age of the sanitary sewer collection system.

Starting in 2016, the City has conducted an aggressive R&R Program with eight major projects that replaced over 27,800 lineal feet of sewer mains and 471 sewer laterals along the respective sewer main segments. Current projects, scheduled through the end of FY 2025-2026, include water main replacements throughout the City which are to be performed in conjunction with street improvement projects ($1,500,000), replacing the 16-inch steel water and sewer main from PZ1 to Bush Street ($1,500,000) and upgrading the Vichy Springs lift station ($400,000). The estimated CIP cost includes all project costs such as planning, design, construction, and construction management.

CITY OF UKIAN AND UKIAH VALLEY SANITATION DISTRICT August 2025 | 44

SANITARY SEWER MANAGEMENT PLAN
Funding for projects comes from City and District sewer service charges and sanitary sewer connection fees. These charges and fees are defined in the City’s and District’s wastewater ordinances. The Director of Water Resources and Water/Sewer Maintenance Supervisor are responsible for submitting budget proposals to the City Council for approval. Similarly, the District Manager is responsible for submitting budget proposals to the District Board of Directors. With an established fiscal year budget, the Director and Supervisor authorize shortterm funding for standard operating and maintenance costs and emergency repairs. Similarly, the District manager authorizes capital expenditures for District projects.

An integral part of the R&R plan includes sewer collection system maintenance and condition assessment projects. These projects will often identify deficiencies and problem areas within the collection system and will lead towards future R&R or other CIP projects. The City will continue to maintain its collection system and make improvements based on deficiencies identified through additional condition assessment projects.
9 MONITORING, MEASUREMENT AND PROGRAM

MODIFICATIONS
Element 9 discusses how the City and District monitor implementation of SSMP elements and measure the effectiveness of these elements in reducing spills. Effectiveness is measured by developing and tracking performance indicators on a regular basis. The indicators should provide data on how effective the City and District have been in meeting their collection system management goals. This section also discusses how the City and District keep the SSMP current.

9.1 REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS FOR MONITORING, MEASUREMENT

AND PROGRAM MODIFICATIONS
The regulatory requirements for the Monitoring, Measurement, and Program Modifications element of the SSMP are summarized as follows:
a) Maintaining relevant information, including audit findings, to establish and prioritize appropriate Plan activities;
b) Monitoring the implementation and measuring the effectiveness of each Plan Element; c) Assessing the success of the preventive operation and maintenance activities; d) Updating Plan procedures and activities, as appropriate, based on results of monitoring and performance evaluations; and
e) Identifying and illustrating spill trends, including spill frequency, locations and estimated volumes.

9.2 MONITORING, MEASUREMENT AND PROGRAM MODIFICATIONS

DISCUSSION

9.2.1 Compliance Summary
The City’s collection system inspection and condition assessment is discussed in more detail in SSMP Element 4, Section 4.3.1. The City tracks the location and cause of all spills, blockages, and gravity main hot-spots and tracks all cleaning activities in iWorq, for both its collection system

CITY OF UKIAN AND UKIAH VALLEY SANITATION DISTRICT August 2025 | 45

SANITARY SEWER MANAGEMENT PLAN
and the District’s collection system. In addition to pipe metrics (size, age, etc.), iWorq details the location of each pipe cleaned and any relevant remarks observed during the cleaning. Records for cleaning schedules and maintenance repairs are kept and updated electronically.

The City initiated a system-wide CCTV)inspection of the sewer system (City and District system) in 2006. As of 2011, one hundred percent of the collection system has been inspected using CCTV. The Water/Sewer Maintenance Supervisor reviews the videos to determine if each is of useful quality and files the results in a binder in his office, which is accessible to the operations crew. Additionally, City field staff observes all gravity mains and manholes during routine cleaning and conducts localized video inspections when their observations warrant further investigation. Condition assessments are performed concurrent with manhole and CCTV inspection and documented in iWorq, the City’s CMMS software.

Individuals using the City’s tracking and CCTV systems are trained and retrained regularly, depending on when and where the training is offered. Training opportunities include those offered by CUES, and the continuing education unit (CEU) training to maintain operator certifications. Likewise, all inspection equipment is maintained on a regular maintenance schedule.

With the adoption of District Ordinance No. 1 in 1958, City Ordinance City Ordinance No. 1111 in October 2008, and District Ordinance No. 28 in December 2006, the City and District have the authority to permit, inspect and enforce the maintenance of FOG-control devices (e.g., grease interceptors); these ordinances prohibit the release of any objectionable waste into the sewer.

See Element 3 and Element 7of the SSMP for more information. This process is part of the City’s routine annual preventative operation and maintenance inspection and cleaning schedule.

Maintenance is also conducted when potential problem areas are discovered through inspections. Beyond this, sewer pipes that are prone to FOG accumulation or blockages are given high priority, monitored, maintained, and cleaned at least once a month. In addition, all spills are reported to the California Integrated Water Quality System (CIWQS).

9.2.2 Performance Measures
A number of performance indicators are tracked to evaluate the long-term effectiveness of the elements described in this SSMP and for reporting to the State and Regional Water Boards in the annual spill report for both the City and the District. Some of these indicators could be expected to relate directly to specific elements or operations and maintenance activities, whereas others relate to multiple activities or program effectiveness, as a whole. For example, it may be possible to correlate the number of blockages attributed to roots with the total annual footage of sewer lines subject to activities as part of the preventive maintenance program (see SSMP Element 4.2.2). In contrast, the volume of spills reaching surface waters would more likely reflect multiple maintenance activities, emergency response times, the Sewer Pipe Blockage Control Program, and even uncontrollable factors. In measuring an outcome that is characterized by a relatively small number of events (e.g., number of annual wet weather spills), it is important to recognize that statistical variability may dominate short-term trends and that true causal relationships are likely to be evident only over the long term.

CITY OF UKIAN AND UKIAH VALLEY SANITATION DISTRICT August 2025 | 46

SANITARY SEWER MANAGEMENT PLAN
The following list shows the quantitative indicators that are currently tracked or those planned to be tracked.
 Location of all spills over the past 12 months;
 Number of spills over the past 12 months, distinguishing between dry weather spills and wet weather spills;
 Volume distribution of spills (e.g., number of spills less than 100 gallons, 100- to 999 gallons, 1,000- to 9,999 gallons, more than 10,000 gallons);  Volume of spills that was contained in relation to total volume of spills;  Spills by cause (e.g., roots, FOG, debris, pipe failure, pump station failure, capacity, other);
 Number of spills over the past 12 months;
 Stoppages by cause;
 Number of grease interceptors inspected over the past 12 months;  Percentage of grease interceptors inspected over the past 12 months; Miles of gravity mains cleaned over the past 12 months;
 Percentage of total gravity mains cleaned over the past 12 months;  Percentage of wet wells cleaned over the past 6 months.

9.2.3 Baseline Performances
In order to track the progress of the City and District efforts to reduce spills and – by extension – the effectiveness of the SSMP, it is helpful to establish a baseline from which to draw comparisons. The following tables establish that baseline and provide a summary of the spills since the initial development and implementation of the SSMP until 2024.

9.3 FUTURE PROGRAM IMPROVEMENTS
Element 10 of the SSMP serves to record the evolution of the SSMP elements. Per SSS WDR requirements, the entire SSMP is to be audited at least once every three (3) years, which is the current audit plan for the City and the District. The following is a summary of accomplishments and identified potential future program improvements relative to this element.

The City is aware of the typical causes of spills in the collection system (i.e., debris, roots, grease) and as shown in Section 9.2, significant improvements have been made with regards to the

CITY OF UKIAN AND UKIAH VALLEY SANITATION DISTRICT August 2025 | 48

SANITARY SEWER MANAGEMENT PLAN
number of spills since the initial development and implementation of the City’s SSMP. Further, preventative maintenance activities are well established, including cleaning schedules for problem areas within the service area.

It is the City and District intent that the SSMP remain a living document and that it be regularly updated to reflect program or organizational changes, new regulatory requirements, facility improvements, and other changing conditions. Methods to ensure this objective is met include:
 The City Director of Water Resources assumes the overall responsibility for maintaining and updating the SSMP. The District will also provide input and make recommendations for the SSMP. This involves input and coordination with the City’s Engineering, Collection System, and Operations and Maintenance groups and with the District. If conditions or higher-level priorities warrant, an outside consultant may be engaged, at the direction of the Director or designee, to update the Plan;
 A number of the activities described in the SSMP reflect ongoing programs for which the review and update process is well established. Examples include preventive maintenance measures, staff training, outreach, inspection, and testing;  The 2022 SSS WDR requires periodic auditing of the SSMP. This will elevate maintenance of the SSMP to a mandatory status on par with other regulatory requirements; and  The 2022 SSS WDR requires that the SSMP be updated every six (6) years. Updates will be conducted more frequently if warranted through significant changes in the supporting documents for the program elements.
10 SSMP AUDITS
Element 10 presents the City and District’s auditing program. This section describes how the City and District will evaluate the effectiveness of the SSMP to identify updates or modifications which may be needed to maintain the plan’s usefulness.

10.1 REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS FOR SSMP AUDITS
The regulatory requirements for SSMP Program Audit element of the SSMP are summarized as follows:
a) Evaluate the implementation and effectiveness of the Enrollee’s Sewer System Management Plan in preventing spills;
b) At a minimum, these audits must occur once every three (3) years; and c) The audit shall focus on evaluating the effectiveness of the SSMP and the City’s compliance with the SSMP requirements, including identification of any deficiencies in the SSMP and steps to correct them.

10.2 SSMP PROGRAM AUDITS
Per the 2022 SSS WDR, SSMP program audits are to be conducted on a three-year basis. The audit team may be comprised of individuals outside the Public Works Department, including other City departments, outside agencies, consultants, and/or contractors and District staff. The scope of the audit will cover each of the major sections of the SSMP including:

CITY OF UKIAN AND UKIAH VALLEY SANITATION DISTRICT August 2025 | 49

SANITARY SEWER MANAGEMENT PLAN
 Evaluating the implementation and effectiveness of the SSMP in preventing spills;  Evaluating the Enrollee’s compliance with the 2022 SSS WDR;  Identifying SSMP deficiencies in addressing ongoing spills and discharges to waters of the State; and
 Identifying necessary modifications to the SSMP to correct deficiencies.

After the SSMP Audit has been completed, the Legally Responsible Official (LRO) submits the Audit Report to the online CIWQS Sanitary Sewer System Database within six (6) months of the end of the required three-year audit period. More details on the schedule for SSMP audits and updates are included in Section 1.3 of the SSMP.

The audit report will include audit findings and recommended corrective actions, a statement that operators’ input on the audit findings has been considered, and a proposed schedule for the City and District to address the identified deficiencies. SSMP audit records will be maintained to assist during SSMP updates as these will further outline deficiencies and recommendations to ensure the City’s SSMP is compliant with the requirements stipulated under the 2022 SSS WDR.

The City and District will determine the need to update the SSMP based on the results of the audit, as well as the performance of its wastewater collection system based on information collected for Element 9 of the SSMP. The audits will assist the City in establishing and prioritizing SSMP improvement efforts. If the City and District decide that an update is warranted, then the process to complete the update will be established.
11 COMMUNICATION PROGRAM
This section of the Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP) discusses the communication strategies used by the City and District. The District’s facilities are satellite facilities to the City’s and the two agencies cooperate to facilitate communication with the general public.

11.1 REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS FOR COMMUNICATION PROGRAM
The SSS WDR requirements for the SSMP Communication Program element of the SSMP are summarized as follows:
a) The City and District shall communicate on regular basis with the public on:
i. Spills and discharges resulting in closures of public areas, or that enter a source of drinking water, and
ii. the development, implementation, and performance of its SSMP. The communication system shall provide the public the opportunity to provide input to the City and District as the program is developed and implemented. b) The City and District shall communicate on regular basis with Owners/operators of systems that connect into the Enrollee’s system, including satellite systems, for:
i. System operation, maintenance, and capital improvement-related activities.

SANITARY SEWER MANAGEMENT PLAN

11.2 COMMUNICATION PROGRAM DISCUSSION
One goal of the SSMP is to minimize the number and impact of spills. For a number of reasons, including a past legal settlement, the City and District have been actively implementing several programs geared towards public education and outreach to accomplish this goal. This section summarizes communication and outreach utilized by the City and the District, progressive programs and techniques that have been implemented by small to large cities and districts throughout the state and across the country, and provides recommendations for communication program elements to implement in the future.

11.2.1 Stakeholder Groups
There are various stakeholder groups for the sanitary sewer collection system that have been identified for current and future outreach and communication efforts. It is the intent of the SSMP process to collaborate with these stakeholder groups on potentially controversial issues.

This approach allows the public to embrace the SSMP and reach towards a shared goal with the City. A list of stakeholders is presented in Table 7 below.

Table 7. Stakeholder Groups

11.2.1.1 Domestic Ratepayers and Local Neighborhood Associations The primary stakeholders in many SSMPs are the domestic users. These are typically the residential ratepayers but can also include neighborhood and homeowner associations. Any

CITY OF UKIAN AND UKIAH VALLEY SANITATION DISTRICT August 2025 | 51

SANITARY SEWER MANAGEMENT PLAN
proposed rate increase resulting from operations and maintenance budgeting (including the Sewer Pipe Blockage Control Program) and capital improvement costs will raise interest by this group. Communicating to this group the importance of the increase can provide support and help. Communication of the SSMP, City/District planning processes, and outreach for specific topics (i.e., Sewer Pipe Blockage Control Program or spills) can include a variety of approaches.

In general, providing multiple resources is a good approach. Information for the Sewer Pipe Blockage Control Program, lateral repairs, and past and current planning efforts are currently available at Department of Public Works and on the City’s website (www.cityofukiah.com), which is described later in this plan element. Any information provided by the District is also posted on the City’s website. Future outreach activities will include discussion at public meetings, as well as mailers, handouts, and various community activities (i.e., community events, youth sports, school activities).

In a similar manner, the City maintains communication with the public regarding spills and discharges resulting in closures of public areas by placing signs in affected areas and through implementation of Nixle, which provides the public with emergency alerts and notifications.

11.2.1.2 Satellite Agencies
The City owns, operates, and maintains a sewer collection system within its corporate limits and operates and maintains the collection system owned by the District. The District’s collection system serves both unincorporated areas of Mendocino County and portions of the City that were annexed in the last 30 years. The City and the District have four joint meetings throughout each year where they review operation and maintenance procedures. The City and District collaborate on the status and performance of the SSMP, at a minimum, through the SSMP Audits (Element 10), and also as specific capital improvement projects and associated budgets warrant discussion.

Communication is important between the City and District regarding similar policies such as grease ordinances and in carrying out procedures contained in the Spill Emergency Response Plan (SERP) included in SSMP Element 6.

11.2.1.3 Non-Domestic Establishments
The key component of communication and outreach to commercial facilities, such as FSEs, is to identify “hot spots” where FOG and other illicit discharges are considered a problem if conveyed to the collection system. All FSEs are required by the City and District grease ordinances to impose control measures and practices to prevent pipe-blocking substances from entering the collection system.

11.2.1.4 Developers, Developer Associations, Contractors, and Engineering Consultants
The City’s and District’s primary outreach and communication strategy for this group is the City’s website and in information available at City Hall and the District offices. The City regularly updates its website to provide a convenient resource for the District’s and City’s sewer policies, standards, and procedures. The City’s sanitary sewer standard plans are discussed in SSMP Element 3 and Element 5 .

CITY OF UKIAN AND UKIAH VALLEY SANITATION DISTRICT August 2025 | 52

SANITARY SEWER MANAGEMENT PLAN
Communication is important between City departments and District regarding information for developers and developer associates, as these stakeholder groups often require services by multiple departments through the planning, design, and construction phases of a project.

Interoffice staff coordination and web-based resources are currently used for communication between departments and will continue to be used in the future.

11.2.1.5 Other City and County Departments
As noted above, it is important for the District and the City’s Public Works Department to communicate with other City and County departments, especially regarding its SERP (SSMP Element 6). Response to a spill may require resources outside of the Public Works Department, both at the City and County levels. Communication is also important regarding design standards, as residential and commercial development activities typically require the services of multiple departments for the processing of various permits.

11.2.1.6 Governing Boards and Councils
The City Council and District Board will remain informed as to the progress of the SSMP development and future audit process through discussion between staff, consultants, and the public at regular public meetings. These meetings will provide a forum for discussion of costs, public impacts, and effectiveness of the communication and outreach elements of the SSMP.

11.2.1.7 Environmental Groups and Regulators
The primary activity for the City to communicate the SSMP to these stakeholders is the audit process. As discussed in SSMP Element 10 – SSMP Audits, the SSMP will be audited every three (3) years, with interim reviews conducted, as appropriate or needed. SSMP updates and recertification are required every six (6) years. Through the ongoing audit and review process, the City and District will communicate its overall compliance for the SSMP process to local and state regulators, including the SERP. Local and regional environmental groups can stay informed as to the status of the City’s SSMP document through communication with the City and on the City’s website.

11.2.2 Website and Media
Website and media outreach is currently limited to the City’s website and information available at City Hall. The public can find information at these locations regarding updates on the City’s SSMP and on sewer policies, standards, and procedures. The SSMP is made available to the public online (www.cityofukiah.com) and at the City of Ukiah Civic Center at 300 Seminary Ave.

11.2.3 Regional Associations
The City is a member of the RRWA. The group develops and implements regional projects and programs focused on the areas of water quality and regulations, integrated resources and planning, and public outreach and funding. RRWA promotes a program that encourages the public to keep FOG out of the sewers. In addition, RRWA has prepared an outreach fact sheet titled “Good Plumbing Practices” to notify plumbing contractors about the potential impact of their work on public sanitary sewer system. The City and District promote these practices through use of the City’s website.

Report Templates are used to defi ne the content and look of a report. Most reports packaged with Granite XP will be represented as templates (in conjunction with report presets to set up fi ltering criteria). Each report template consists of a number of objects to be described. These objects are represented by a subset of their properties (report fi elds). Graphics and secondary fi elds can also be included. For example, values like averages or sums, sorting, and grouping.

REPORTS
www.cuesinc.com 800.327.7791
Report Presets are used to speed up day-to-day report operations like printing and exporting daily or weekly reports. In Granite XP, it is useful to specify persistent filters for daily or weekly reports and for selecting and generating several reports at a time. By specifying persistent filters for report templates and selecting and generating several reports at a time, report processing time can be shortened.

GUIDELINES FOR GRANTS TO ELIGIBLE PROPERTY OWNERS

1. The Grant Program is available only to Eligible Property Owners who are required to repair or replace a qualified defective sewer lateral because of the occurrence of an event or trigger which requires the inspection and testing of the sewer lateral in accordance with the City's or District's Sewer Lateral Inspection and Testing Ordinance. The maximum Grant Amount for the repair or replacement of each qualified defective sewer lateral shall be set by Resolution.

Because Grant Funds are limited, the Grant Program is not available to Property Owners who repair or replace their sewer lateral at their own discretion or to Property Owners who construct new structures on vacant parcels or who redevelop previously developed parcels and utilize the existing sewer lateral(s).

2. To become eligible to receive a Grant, an Eligible Property Owner must first submit a completed Grant Application along with evidence that the sewer lateral is a qualified defective sewer lateral. The Grant Application may either be submitted prior to the start or after the completion of the sewer lateral repair or replacement work. In either case, the sewer lateral repair or replacement work must be performed under a permit issued by the City or the District. a. If the Grant Application is submitted prior to the start of the repair or replacement of a qualified defective sewer lateral, the Eligible Property Owner shall obtain at least one bid or cost quotation for the repair or replacement work. All bids or cost quotations shall be obtained from contractors licensed with the State of California to perform work on private 3

EXHIBIT "A" TO RESOLUTION 2008-03
sewer laterals. In the case of repairs to the sewer lateral, the scope of work contained in the bid or quote shall be sufficient to ensure that the repair work, once completed and tested, will meet the standards established for a 25 year Sewer Lateral Certificate of Compliance. All bids shall be submitted with the Grant Application to the City or District for review and confirmation of Eligible Costs. After the Grant Application has been approved by the City or the District and the sewer lateral repair or replacement work is completed within 60 days from the approval date of the Grant Application and the repaired or replaced sewer lateral passes the Exfiltration Test, payment of the approved eligible costs up to the maximum amount allowed for the grant is guaranteed. Payment of the Grant amount will be made to the Eligible Property Owner after the permit is finalized and within the City's and District's normal time frame for processing warrants.

Should the sewer lateral repair or replacement work not be completed within the time frame stipulated on the approved Grant Application, the application will be processed as if the sewer lateral repair or replacement work had been completed prior to receiving an approved Grant Application.
b. If the Grant Application is submitted subsequent to the completion of the sewer lateral repair or replacement work, the Eligible Property Owner shall submit with the Grant Application copies of all invoices from the licensed contractor who performed the work or, if the work was self performed by the Eligible Property Owner, copies of the material and equipment payment receipts. After receipt of a complete Grant Application, the City or District will determine which costs are Eligible Costs and any cost(s) which appear to be unreasonable for the type of work performed will be subject to revision to be considered Eligible Costs. If sufficient funds are available within the Grant Fund and the repaired or replaced sewer lateral has passed the Exfiltration Test and the Permit finalized, the Grant Application will be approved.Payment of the Grant amount will be made to the Eligible Property Owner within the City's and District's normal time frame for processing warrants.The submittal date of a complete Grant Application will determine its order to be considered for any available grant funding. c. If an Eligible Property owner elects to self perform the repair or replacement of a qualified defective sewer lateral,the Grant Application process must follow the process described in sub-paragraph b, above. Unless the Eligible Property Owner is a licensed Contractor with the State of California and is qualified to perform work on a private sewer lateral, the Eligible Property Owner cannot self perform work on the street lateral. d. Grant funds not exceeding the maximum Grant Amounts shall be set aside by the City or District and reserved for Property Owners who become Eligible as a result of the rehabilitation or replacement of the sewer main for one year commencing with the date of the Notice of Completion of the sewer main work. After the one year period, the approval of the Grant Application will be subject to available funds and processed as indicated in either sub-paragraphs a or b, above.

3. Only the following shall constitute evidence that a sewer lateral is a qualified defective sewer lateral:
a. A CCTV inspection and an Exfiltration Test were performed as required by the City's or District's Sewer Lateral Inspection and Testing Ordinance, and b. The CCTV inspection indicates that the sewer lateral is a defective sewer lateral. The following shall constitute a defective sewer lateral.
4

EXHIBIT "A" TO RESOLUTION 2008-03

a) The pipe section has been altered as a result of a partial or complete pipe collapse and flow blockages have or can occur as a result of the altered pipe section;
b) A severe belly or sump within the sewer lateral causes the settlement of solids thereby increasing the risk of flow blockages;
c) An offset in a pipe joint which can restrict the flow of solids and cause flow blockages; or
ii. The sewer lateral fails the Exfiltration Test.

4. Subsequent to the finalization of the Permit for sewer lateral repair or replacement, a Sewer Lateral Certificate of Compliance shall be issued by the City or District in accordance with the City's or District's Sewer Lateral Inspection and Testing Ordinances. A sewer lateral will not be eligible for another Grant until the Certificate of Compliance for that lateral has expired.

5. Prior to performing any work within the public right of way, an encroachment permit must be obtained from the agency having jurisdiction.

6. The following types of repair or replacements are reimbursable under the Grant Program:

Good Plumbing Practices
Protect The Russian River A Fact Sheet For
Installers / Plumbers
For more information,
please contact RRWA at:
[email protected]
(707) 833 2552
www.rrwatershed.org
Copper Affects the
Russian River
Copper enters the Russian River and
its tributaries through storm drains
and from wastewater discharged
from wastewater treatment plants.

Because copper can be harmful
to fish and many other types
of aquatic life, it is important to
prevent copper from entering the
River whenever possible.

Although most of the copper
entering the Russian River comes
from stormwater, a significant
portion also comes from the
permitted discharge of treated
wastewater. Most of the copper in
wastewater is the result of copper
pipe corrosion.

Although wastewater treatment
plants can remove some of the
copper in wastewater, controlling
sources of copper also helps to
reduce the amount of copper
entering the Russian River. Copper
from pipe corrosion is one source
that can be easily reduced.

Content Courtesy of:

Plumbers Are Part of The Solution!
Your skilled installation techniques can greatly reduce pipe corrosion and help protect the Russian River. Here are some ways you can make a difference:

Best Management Practices
Follow the installation techniques
specified by the ASTM B828 and the
Copper Development Association
in its Application Data Sheet for
“soldering and brazing copper tube
and fittings.”
System Design
Design each plumbing system to:

1. Minimize velocity

2. Minimize hot water temperature

3. Avoid stagnant sections

4. Minimize direction and size
changes
Careful Reaming
Eliminate small burrs created from
pipe cutting. This reduces turbulence
and significantly decreases
corrosion.

Protected Storage
Protect stored pipe from weather and
damage so that installed pipe is as
clean as possible.

Thorough Cleaning
Remove all oxides, debris, and surface
soil from tube ends.

Immediate and
Regular Flushing
Newly installed systems should be
flushed soon after completion to remove
excess flux and debris. For inactive
systems, repeat flushing periodically.

Minimize Flux Use
Avoid excess use of flux to protect both
your health and the river. Excess flux
residue can increase pipe corrosion
which leads to copper discharges to
the river. Warning: Flux is harmful if
carried to the eyes, mouth, or open
cuts. Some fluxes also absorb through
the skin. Wear protective equipment.

Bay Area Clean
Water Agencies
A Joint Powers Agency
Less Corrosive Fluxes
The ASTM B813 flux standard
limits flux corrosivity and
requires that the flux be water
flushable. While these are
voluntary standards, the Copper
Development Association
encourages architects, engineers,
contractors and building
officials to specify and require
the use of B813 fluxes. All flux
manufacturers make a B813 flux.

B813 fluxes commonly available
in California include:
• Everflux
• Harris Bridget
• Sterling
• Fry’s Fire Eater
• LaCo Ultimate B813 Flux
Pitting in 6-year-old cold water pipe caused by
excess flux at solder joint.

SEWER SYSTEM DESIGN STANDARDS
I. PURPOSE
The purpose of these Standards of Practice (SOP) is to provide guidelines for design of sewer utility projects and thereby reduce the time required for processing the plans. These guidelines do not include, but may reference, additional conditions which may be promulgated by all other pertinent ordinances, codes and official policy set forth by the City, or other government agencies. These guidelines establish minimum acceptable design criteria. More stringent requirements may be imposed by the City or District based on specific project conditions.

It is the responsibility of the design engineer to initiate written requests for approval of any design concepts that differ from these criteria, to verify additional requirements imposed, to perform any necessary calculations or studies, and to resolve specific design problems with the appropriate agency, department, or division.

II. REQUIREMENTS FOR IMPROVEMENT PLANS AND SUBDIVISION MAPS A. Refer to Article 6 of the City’s and District’s wastewater ordinances.

B. Provide a detailed utility plan showing onsite and offsite sewer systems, and their connections to existing City or District sewer facilities. Show any septic systems existing or to be abandoned.

C. . Sewer system designs will, as appropriate, any off-site sewer that is required for the connection to an existing public main.

III. SEWER MAINS - GENERAL
A. Sewer systems will be designed in public streets whenever possible. When not in public streets, the following conditions apply:

1. Ductile iron pipe must be used from manhole to manhole when outside of roadways;

2. In general, lateral connections will not be allowed in easements but where necessary must be accessible and easy to locate; and

3. Lockable lids are required on all manholes located in easements, on school grounds, through parks and on any trunk sewers larger than 12-inch diameter.

B. Private sewer systems vs. public sewer systems:

SANITARY SEWER STANDARDS OF PRACTICE (SOP)
- 5 -
In general, public sewer systems will be used only when they serve multiple lots and suitable access can be provided for maintenance reasons. Private sewer systems will only be used when they serve single lots or when they serve multiple lots and adequate access cannot be provided for private maintenance purposes.

C. Extent of sewer main improvements will be as follows:

1. Any offsite, downstream sewer system improvements needed to serve the project must be shown on the improvement plans, including upgrades to existing mains that may be required as a result of an approved capacity study or modeling effort.

2. In general, sewer mains must be designed across the full property frontage.

3. When a sewer main extension ends at a manhole and the sewer will be extended further in the future, include in the design a 3' long stub out of the manhole with a plug or cap for future connection.

D. Streets with both water and sewer mains must be at least 20 feet wide, face-of-curb to face-of-curb; one utility only: at least 16 feet wide; no water or sewer mains in alleys.

IV. CONNECTION TO AN EXISTING PUBLIC SEWER MAIN
A. Connect new mains to existing at existing manholes or by constructing a new manhole over the point of connection.

B. Where an existing sewer main is to be extended, remove the existing plug, cleanout, or rodding inlet and install a manhole. The main may be extended without installation of a structure only if it is on the same line and grade, the pipe size and material are the same, and the manhole spacing is adequate.

C. Elevations of mains connecting to existing sewer mains will be as follows:

1. Side sewer mains connecting to an existing main at an angle of 30 degrees or greater will be at least 0.1' higher than the existing invert elevation.

2. Connect sewer mains so that the crown of the smaller main is no lower than the crown of the larger main.

3. Connections to Trunk Sewers will be made so that the invert grade of the new main will be no lower than the crown of the Trunk Sewer.

SANITARY SEWER STANDARDS OF PRACTICE (SOP)
- 6 -
D. Where laterals are the same size as the main, connection must be made with a manhole.

Use a wye for all other lateral connections except as in “G” below.

E. For lateral connections to existing mains 12 inches and larger, use taps and saddles with watertight gaskets.

F. Lateral connections to Trunk Sewers 15 inches and larger are generally not allowed except with the specific approval of the City Engineer.

G. Approved alternatives for multiple connections, such as for grouped flag lots or multiple lots off private driveways are:

1. Up to 2 joint-trenched sewer laterals may be connected to the main using wyes at least 1' apart. (Taps or saddles where allowed must be a minimum 1' apart.)

2. A private main, 6-inches or larger in diameter, may connect to the public main at a manhole and extend to the services onsite. This alternative requires a joint maintenance agreement or homeowner’s association, if serving more than one property.

H. Major streets, or where the street surface is less than 5 years old, installation methods other than open cutting may be required. The City Engineer will determine the requirements based on the condition of the existing street.

V. MATERIALS
A. Sewer service laterals will be Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), SDR26 or SDR35, or Ductile Iron Pipe (DIP).

B. Sewer mains up to and including 12 inches will be PVC, SDR26 or SDR35, or DIP.

C. Materials for pipes larger than 12 inches will be approved by the City Engineer.

D. If a gravity sewer main is installed outside of a paved roadway, DIP and sewer identification tape is required.

E. In general, use the same pipe material from structure to structure.

F. Use of Asbestos Cement Pipe is not allowed under any circumstances.

VI. ALIGNMENT
A. Horizontal

SANITARY SEWER STANDARDS OF PRACTICE (SOP)
- 7 -

1. Conform to the State of California, Department of Health Services, "Guidance Criteria for the Separation of Water Mains and Non-Potable Pipelines".

2. Horizontal separation from storm drains or other sewer mains will be a minimum five feet clear between pipes except at crossings.

3. Horizontal separation from other utilities, such as gas, underground electric, underground television cable, etc., will be a minimum of four feet clear between the pipes except at crossings.

4. In general, design public sewer mains in straight street sections to run parallel to the street centerline. All public mains must be a minimum five feet clear from all structures, building overhangs, gutters, property lines or edge of easements and 3 feet clear from all monuments, and/or lips of gutters. The alignment will be designed so that any 48-inch manhole shall be centered a minimum of 3 feet from the lip of gutter and any 60-inch manhole shall be centered a minimum of 4 feet from lip of gutter.

5. In curved streets, design the sewer alignment generally on one side of the centerline to allow installation of other facilities such as water, storm drains, etc. without using transverse crossings. Provide an alignment such that no part of the sewer main is less than 1 foot from the lip of gutter. Structures must be designed in accordance with subsection VI-A(4) above.

6. Horizontal curves in gravity sewer mains are not allowed.

7. All sewer main trenches that are parallel to and deeper than the footing of any adjacent structure must be at least 45 degrees from the footing as required in the International Plumbing Code. Any exceptions must be approved in writing by the City Engineer.

B. Vertical

1. Conform to the State of California, Department of Health Services, "Guidance Criteria for the Separation of Water Mains and Non-Potable Pipelines"

2. Generally provide a minimum of six inches of vertical separation from storm drains or other utilities, such as gas, underground electric, underground television cable, etc. When the minimum cannot be maintained, plans will indicate installation of felt expansion material or equivalent between facilities. To protect the sewer main from distorting under extreme loads, other measures, such as concrete encasement or ductile iron pipe, may be submitted for approval of the City Engineer.

SANITARY SEWER STANDARDS OF PRACTICE (SOP)
- 8 -

3. Vertical curves in gravity sewer mains are not allowed.

VII. MAIN SIZING CRITERIA
A. Public mains will be sized to serve the entire tributary area at buildout densities conforming to the General Plan. Engineers for large developments may be required to provide trunk or collection system calculations or have a wastewater model run performed.

B. The design flows will be based on the following criteria:

1. Population density for all units will be 2.5 people per household. Average domestic flow will be 80 gallons per person per day.

2. Multiply average flow as determined by the Peak Load Factor from the graph "Sewage Peak Load Factor vs. Population,” (Figure VII-A) to obtain the design base flow.

3. Public sewers will be designed to carry infiltration and inflow at the rate of 2.8 gallons per minute per tributary acre.

4. Single-family residences shall add 115% increase for future development.

C. Design all gravity sewers to achieve a minimum velocity of 2 feet per second (fps) using design flows. Lesser velocities require the approval of the City Engineer. When analyzing the existing or proposed sewer systems, use Manning's Formula to determine the design flow and velocity. Use n = 0.013.

1. The minimum size is 6 inches in diameter, though pipe diameters less than 8 inches require approval by the City Engineer or District Manager.

VIII. SLOPE OF SEWER MAINS
A. The sewer must be designed with a slope to be able to serve its entire tributary area. The preferred minimum slope for gravity sewers is 0.005. When conditions require, flatter slopes may be approved in accordance with the following:

The minimum slope for an 8-inch sewer is 0.0040.

The minimum slope for a 10-inch sewer is 0.0028.

The minimum slope for a 12-inch sewer is 0.0022.

B. The maximum slope for gravity sewers is 0.15, or 15' per 100'. In consideration of relevant factors such as steep terrain, steeper sewers may be allowed with the following conditions:

1. Use of restrained joints.

2. Provision of trench dams and drainage measures to prevent a buildup of hydrostatic pressure in trenches.

3. When a sewer with a slope greater than 0.15 passes through a structure with a horizontal change of direction in excess of 30 degrees, a special design of the base channelization is required to prevent overflows and yet allow for routine maintenance operations.

C. Slopes through manholes:

1. When sewers of uniform slope pass through a manhole, the slope will be maintained and the invert at the center of the manhole will be given.

2. When sewers change slope at a manhole, incoming and outgoing invert elevations will be given.

3. Provide sufficient drop through a manhole to compensate for energy loss caused by change of alignment. A minimum drop of 0.1 foot is required for a change of alignment greater than 30 degrees.

4. When pipe sizes change at structures, design the inlet crown at least as high as the outlet crown.

IX. SEWER MAIN/LATERAL COVER
A. Cover is the distance from the top of the pipe to final finished grade measured directly over the pipe.

B. Minimum cover for all sewer mains and laterals will be 36 inches. The City Engineer may approve shallower installations but in no case will cover be less than 24 inches.

C. Where cover is less than 36 inches, special construction techniques must be approved such as concrete encasement, use of ductile iron pipe, concrete cap over the trench or the use of controlled density backfill.

X. MANHOLES AND RODDING INLETS

H. Private sewer mains must connect to the public main at a manhole.

I. Standard drop manhole installations are required when the difference in elevation between the incoming and outgoing sewer is greater than 2 feet. While not encouraged, drop manholes may be required due to some physical constraints. They may not however, be used to merely avoid extra depth of trenching unless unusual circumstances exist.

Upstream slope changes should be used to avoid the need for a drop manhole.

J. When one drop connection is required, use a 60-inch diameter manhole. When two or more drop connections are required, use a 72-inch diameter manhole; however, the use of a multiple-drop manhole must be approved by the City Engineer.

K. Minimize the number of drop manholes.

XI. SEWER LATERALS
A. Provide a separate lateral for each lot.

B. The minimum sewer lateral size is 4 inches. Sewer laterals will be sized according to requirements of the International Plumbing Code, the City Engineer, and determinations by the Design Engineer.

C. Sewer laterals will be located on the property frontage, defined as either the front or side boundary line of a parcel which abuts on a street.

D. Laterals will not be located in easements when gravity service can be provided to the property frontage.

All sewer laterals, from property line or edge of easement to the point of connection with the main line or a manhole, will generally be perpendicular to the curb alignment or easement and will have an angle of intersection with the downstream section of sewer of no less than 90 degrees. No lateral alignments adverse to the flow of the main will be permitted.

H. Locate sewer laterals outside of driveway areas where possible and where driveway locations are known. In general, sewer laterals will be in the center third of lots when driveway locations are unknown and a minimum of 10 feet from trees whenever possible.

For hillside development, place sewer laterals on the low side of property frontages when not in proposed driveway.

I. Sewer laterals serving lots or buildings with plumbing fixtures below the nearest upstream sewer manhole rim require an approved backflow prevention device.

XII. ABANDONMENT OF SEWER MAINS AND SERVICES
A. Any existing sewer mains and service laterals that will not be used must be abandoned and the following must be noted on the Improvement Plans:

1. Sewer mains that are to be abandoned will be securely closed at all pipe ends with a cap or at manholes with a concrete plug. Mains 12 inches and larger must be filled with sand slurry or other suitable material per current City/District Standards.

C. Easements must be configured to encompass all publicly-maintained appurtenances, such as service laterals up to the cleanout, and will be generally centered over the facility.

Separate access easements may be required depending on site conditions. When sanitary sewers are to be installed along a property line the easement will be wholly contained on one parcel.

D. All property restrictions placed as a result of dedication of easements will be so noted on the supplemental sheet of the Subdivision Map, or on the Easement Deed if the easement is not dedicated as part of a subdivision. Typical required notes as applicable are:

1. No structures may encroach on, above, or below the surface of the ground in any public easement. This includes footings of foundations, eaves from the roof of any adjacent structure, pools, ponds or outbuildings on slabs or foundations.

Decks, sheds, or other structures which may be easily removed for maintenance of the sewer system may be allowed at the discretion of the City Engineer.

2. No trees may be planted in a public sewer easement without first obtaining approval of the City Engineer. Trees may be allowed to the extent that damage to the sewer system does not occur from root intrusion and adequate access can be provided for maintenance and repair vehicles.

200-1.08 Testing of Sewers
Testing of all portions of the sewer including manholes is required.

For either exfiltration or infiltration test, the maximum leakage shall not exceed 25 gallons per inch of pipe diameter per mile per 24 hours as measured over a period of 30 minutes minimum.

Should the leakage exceed the maximum allowable rate, the Contractor shall repair, overhaul, or rebuild the defective portion of the sewer line to the satisfaction of the City Engineer at no additional cost to the City or District. After repairs have been completed by the Contractor, the line shall be retested as specified above, all at no cost to the City or District.

Manholes shall be tested per the Sewer Standard Drawing No. 200 guidelines. During the test, manholes shall be filled with water the rim of the frame casing and shall lose no more than 2 inches over a period of 30 minutes.

The test shall be performed after the line has been laid and all backfill placed and compacted as specified elsewhere in these specifications. The Contractor, at his option, may test the line at any time during construction. However, the final test for acceptance shall be made only after all backfill is in place and compacted.

In the event the exfiltration test prescribed above is impractical due to wet trench conditions, these portions of the sewer line where such conditions are encountered will be tested for infiltration. The Engineer shall determine whether the exfiltration or infiltration test will be used.

Even though the test for leakage is within the prescribed limits, the Contractor shall repair any obvious leaks.

Low pressure air testing may be used in lieu of water testing at the option of the Contractor.

Water testing may be required by the Engineer. The following procedure shall be used for air testing:

1. Clean pipe to be tested by propelling a snug-fitting inflated rubber ball through pipe with water. Remove any debris.

SANITARY SEWER STANDARDS OF PRACTICE (SOP)
- 23 -

2. Plug all pipe outlets with suitable test plugs. Brace each plug securely.

3. If the pipe to be tested is submerged in ground water, insert a pipe probe, by boring or jetting, into the backfill material adjacent to the center of the pipe, and determine the pressure in the probe when air passes slowly through it. This is the back pressure due to ground water submergence over the end of the probe. All gauge pressures in the test should be increased by this amount.

4. Add air slowly to the portion to the pipe installation under test until the internal air pressure is raised to 5.0 psig.

5. Check exposed pipe and plugs for abnormal leakage by coating with a soap solution. If any leakage is observed, bleed off air and make necessary repairs.

6. After an internal pressure of 5.0 psig is obtained, allow at least two minutes for air temperature to stabilize, adding only the amount of air required to maintain pressure.

7. After two minute period, disconnect the air supply and start stopwatch. The pressure of 5 psig shall be maintained for 5 minutes.
200-1.08A Television (CCTV) Inspection
The Contractor shall hire an independent television inspection service to perform a closed-circuit television inspection of all newly constructed sewers. A digital video disk (DVD) of the television inspection shall be produced and delivered to the Engineer in color DVD format, together with a typed log of the inspection.

The following conditions shall exist prior to the television inspection:

1. All sewer lines shall be installed, backfilled and compacted;

2. All structures shall be in place, all channeling complete and all pipelines accessible from structures;

3. All other underground facilities, utility piping and conduit within two feet of the sewer main, shall be installed;

7. Immediately before the television inspection, run fresh water into the sewer until it passes through the downstream manhole.

When the above work has been completed, the Contractor shall notify the Public Works Inspector 48 hours in advance of the date for television inspection. During this inspection, the Contractor or his authorized representative shall be present to observe the video pictures as provided by the television camera.

The following videotape observations shall be considered defects in the construction of the sewer pipelines and will require corrections prior to acceptance:

1. Off grade – 0.08 foot, or over, deviation from grade;

2. Joint separations – over 3/4";

3. Offset joints;

4. Chips in pipe ends – none more than 1/4" deep;

5. Cracked or damaged pipe or evidence of the presence of an external object bearing upon the pipe (rocks, roots, etc.);

6. Infiltration;

7. Debris or other foreign objects; and

8. Other obvious deficiencies when compared to Approved Plans and Specifications, these Standards and Standard drawings.

The Contractor shall be notified in writing of any deficiencies revealed by the television inspection that will require repair, following which the Contractor shall excavate and make the necessary repairs and request a television re-inspection.

STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE

FOR SEWER SYSTEM
Objective:

The specific objective of this Standard Operating Procedure is to eliminate obstructions, improve flow characteristics and ensure that sewer collection system is clean and open. All sanitary sewer lines and manholes shall be cleaned annually. Known critical areas included in the “Sewer Maintenance List” (SSMP – Appendix 4-A) shall be inspected and cleaned every month.

Required Equipment and Tools:
 Personal protective equipment (i.e., hardhat, safety vest, steel toe boots, gloves, eye/face protection, hearing protection)
 Proper safety cones/barricades/flagging/signs or other traffic control devices  Confined space equipment – tripod, harness, and ventilation blower  Calibrated gas detector
 Sewer (jetter/evactors) truck
 Sewer cleaning nozzle and root saws
 Six-wire skid (“proofer”) in sizes that will be encountered during the day  Debris traps in the sizes that will be encountered during the day  Manhole hook or pick-axe
 Measuring wheel
 Disinfectant
 Light stand
 Hose
Required Documents:
 Sanitary sewer base map
 Sewer Maintenance List
 CCTV inspection form
 Manhole inspection form
 Cleaning schedule
At Corporation Yard:
 Check overall condition of sewer truck:
o Fluid leaks on ground
o Tires
o Water Tank
o Water Pump
o Lights, brake, turn signal and hazards
 Inspect the truck equipment (tubes, clamps, hooks, nozzles, etc.) for damages or missing parts. Replace equipment that is excessively worn.

SANITARY SEWER STANDARDS OF PRACTICE (SOP)
- 29 -
 Inspect the first 200 feet of hose and couplings for damage or wear.

Starting-Up at the Jobsite:
 Determine and confirm location of upstream and downstream manholes (use street addresses, if possible).
 Look for any overhead utilities that may come into contact with the vacuum boom during the cleaning operation.
 Set up proper traffic control by placing traffic signs, flags, and safety cones around the vehicle. The safety cones shall be placed with at least 15 to 20 feet of space from the rear of the truck and 4 feet beyond the front of the truck. Turn on the arrow board to direct/notify traffic of your status. “It is always more important to do the job safely than quickly.”
 During the course of working, make sure that all warning lights and the arrow board are operating properly and the arrow flashing to send traffic towards the open lane.

A. Sewer Pipe Cleaning
 Fill water tank at or near the first jobsite.
 Helper is to ground guide the driver/operator to align rear of vehicle over dry, downstream manhole.
 Pull the manhole lid and use the gas detector to determine if it is safe to proceed with the cleaning operation.
 Observe sewer flow in the manhole. In any event of slow running sewers or possible backup of manhole, notify your immediate supervisor of this situation so that corrective action can be taken.
 Choose the right nozzle for the job.
o A 15 degree nozzle is used for high grade, long lines and when penetrating blockages.
o A 30 degree nozzle is best for cleaning due to the jets of water hitting the wall more directly and closer to the nozzle.
 Attach penetrating nozzle (or root saw) to the hose.
 Turn on the system and operate at safe speed.
 Lower the hose, with a guide or roller to protect the hose, into the manhole and direct it into the sewer line to be cleaned.
 Start the high pressure pump and adjust the pressure depending on depth of manhole, nozzle used and nature of the work being done. Shallow lines require less pressure than deep lines.
 Allow hose to feed itself through the line at moderate pace (not to exceed 3 feet per minute). It may be best to feed hose about 50 feet and bring it back.  Observe the nature and quantity of the debris removed during the cleaning operation.  Continue to clean the line until nothing but clear water comes through the line while bringing the nozzle back to the starting position.

SANITARY SEWER STANDARDS OF PRACTICE (SOP)
- 30 -
 Remove the debris out the manhole until no more debris comes back with the return of the cleaning nozzle.
 Lift the upstream manhole and verify that the nozzle has reached it.  When the end of the run is reached, pull the hose back.

NOTES:
o The intent of sewer cleaning is to remove foreign materials from the lines and restore the sewer to a minimum of 95% of the original carrying capacity, or as required. It is recognized that there are some conditions such as broken or damaged pipe and major blockages that prevent cleaning from being accomplished or where additional damage would result if cleaning were attempted or continued. If such conditions occur, the crew shall contact Water/Sewer Maintenance Supervisor immediately and advise him/her of the situation.
o Material removal such as sludge, dirt, sand, rocks, grease, and other solid, or semi-solid, material resulting from the cleaning process shall be removed from the jobsite.

B. Sealing Manhole Cover for Noise or Odor Control
 Pull the manhole lid and use the gas detector to determine if it is safe to proceed with the cleaning operation.
 Sweep ring of manhole with a broom.
 Get out caulking gun and cartridge of roof cement.
 Cut tip off cartridge. Puncture seal in tip.
 Load cartridge into caulking gun.
 Squeeze trigger of caulking gun until black caulk starts to come out.  Squeeze 3-4 large beads of caulking around manhole ring. o If the purpose of sealing the manhole cover is to control the odor, squeeze out a bead of caulking around the entire ring of manhole.
 Secure the manhole cover back into the manhole ring and close manhole. o If the purpose of sealing the manhole cover is to control the odor, after closing the manhole, squeeze out caulking in holes on top of manhole cover.

C. Replacing Manhole Cover
 Measure diameter and thickness of manhole cover.
 Check if the manhole cover is a safety concern. If it is, place barricades around it.  Proceed to the warehouse or corporation yard for a replacement.

SANITARY SEWER STANDARDS OF PRACTICE (SOP)
- 31 -
Leaving the Jobsite
 Close the manhole. Ensure that the manhole is properly seated.  Secure equipment.
 Fill out the required forms.
 Pick the cones up in reverse. Pick up the cones in front of the truck first, then the cones on the side of the truck. Finally, pick up the cones to the rear of the truck. The cone that is farthest away is the last cone to be picked up.
 Move to the next jobsite.

At the End of the Day
 Inspect the equipment and tools for problems.
 Report any problems with equipment, tools, or sewers that were cleaned during the day to the Water/Sewer Maintenance Supervisor.
 Submit daily work reports to the Water/Sewer Maintenance Supervisor at end of shift.

REQUIREMENTS AND STANDARDS FOR CLOSED CIRCUIT TELEVISION

SEWER LATERAL INSPECTIONS

PURPOSE AND SCOPE
This document provides information and sets forth standards for sewer lateral closed circuit television (CCTV) inspections and recording. The purpose and scope of this document is to encompass those facets of the CCTV Sewer Lateral Inspection Program pertaining to the performance and quality of the CCTV inspection and recording and to improve the accuracy and quality of the televising activities and preparation of the CCTV inspection report. Specifically, it is for use by CCTV operators and technicians, contractors, plumbers, design engineers, CCTV interpreters, and others who are or may be involved in the CCTV Sewer Lateral Testing Program.

This document does not set forth the standards pertaining to sewer lateral testing, repair, or replacement.

GENERAL INFORMATION

1. Prior to performing the CCTV inspection, the sewer lateral shall have been cleaned by utilizing the appropriate cleaning method given the inside condition of the sewer lateral.

Roots, grease, oil, sediment, or solids shall be removed to permit the visual review and recording of the inside wall of the sewer lateral. The cleaning work is to be performed by a licensed Contractor pursuant to the provisions of Section 7026 of the State of California Business and professions Code.

2. CCTV sewer lateral inspection recordings shall be in VHS tape or DVD format and shall be in either color or black and white. Color recordings are preferred and after December 31, 2008, all recordings shall be in color.

3. Camera, power source, lights, and other components for the video inspection shall be equipment designed and manufactured for the inspection of sewer laterals and piping having a minimum diameter of 3” and for a distance of at least 100 feet from the point of access.

4. Lighting and camera quality shall be suitable to provide a clear, in focus picture of the entire inside periphery of the sewer pipe for all conditions encountered during the work.

5. All recordings shall be in focus, properly illuminated with good contrast, adequate color and tint, if colored recording, without distortion or outside interference.

6. The camera lens must be kept clean and clear; any fogging due to oil, grease, or other water content or debris that obscures the lens shall be cleaned off before proceeding with the recording operation. The camera is to be operative in 100% humidity.

7. Sewer lateral CCTV inspection recordings that are to be submitted to the City or District for review and the eventual issuance of a Sewer Lateral Certificate of Compliance are to be performed by contractors who are licensed and experienced to perform CCTV inspections or other inspection service providers and technicians who are permitted by law to perform such inspections. Contractors, inspection service providers, or technicians

2 who have been pre-qualified by the City may perform the CCTV inspection recording work without the City inspector being present when performing such inspection work within the City or District.

8. The CCTV inspection video tape or DVD shall show the whole periphery of the pipe.

CCTV inspection personnel shall coordinate the work of the CCTV inspection with the property owner or resident to minimize or temporally stop sewer discharge into the sewer lateral while recording in order to show the whole periphery of the sewer lateral. If a bypass conduit is necessary, it must receive prior approval from the City inspector, and it shall be used as the last alternative.

9. A data view display feature capable of showing on tape or DVD the following information shall be provided:
a. Physical address of property which the sewer lateral serves b. Date and time of inspection
c. Name of company, firm or technician performing the CCTV inspection d. Inside diameter of sewer lateral and type of pipe material e. Continuous footage counter accurate within 3 percent f. Identification of access and starting point for video inspection such as upstream cleanout and location of cleanout. Vent lines will not be acceptable as access points.

10. The preferred direction of the video inspection is forward from upstream to downstream.

11. Video televising of the entire length of the sewer lateral is required. Inability or failure to do so because of obstructions in the line, collapsed pipe, out of alignment joint offsets, or lack of acceptable access points will result in the rejection of the CCTV inspection report.

An acceptable access point is defined as a cleanout constructed in accordance with the plumbing code and or City of Ukiah Standard Plan No. 213 and it permits the complete video inspection of the sewer lateral. A vent pipe or any portion of the building plumbing is not considered as an acceptable access point. If there are no acceptable access points, installation of new sewer lateral cleanout meeting the requirements of the adopted plumbing code and the City of Ukiah Standard Plan No. 213 will be required in order to perform a video inspection of the sewer lateral. The location of the cleanout shall either be near the building footing at the building plumbing outlet, at the property line, or between the property line and the building footing. If only one cleanout is being provided to facilitate the video detection and it is located at the property line, a double sweep type cleanout shall be provided to facilitate inspection of the building lateral from the new cleanout.

12. The video tapes or DVDs shall be labeled and the labels shall be typewritten or legibly hand printed and shall include the following information:
a. A “CCTV Sewer Lateral Inspection” title
b. Street address of the property to which the sewer lateral serves c. Date of inspection
d. The name of the Company, Firm or Individual responsible for the CCTV Inspection and to which payment has been made as reflected on the invoice provided by the inspection service provider to the owner or service requestor.

13. The CCTV inspector or operator shall attempt to identify all illicit connections to the sewer lateral observed in the CCTV inspection such as roof drains, area drains, french drains, swimming pool drains, basement drains, and footing drains by physically inspecting the property for visible evidence. The findings shall be noted in the CCTV Inspection Report

3 14. Sewer lateral lengths shall be measured from cleanout to sewer main, cleanout to inside of structure or from cleanout to cleanout.

SPECIFICATION
All CCTV data collecting and recording activities shall conform to the minimum requirements set forth in “The CCTV Inspection Standard for Sewer Laterals”.

THE CCTV INSPECTION STANDARDS FOR SEWER LATERALS
PART 1 – FIELD DATA COLLECTING PRACTICES
All CCTV inspection and recording practice for sewer laterals will be evaluated against these Standards.

1. All recordings shall be in color with the ability to achieve proper balance of tint and brightness or in black or white. After December 31, 2008, black and white recordings will no longer be acceptable. For recordings in color, the loss of color or severe redness due to equipment malfunction may be cause for rejection of the CCTV Inspection Report.

2. All recordings shall be properly focused and illuminated with good contrast, adequate color and tint, without distortion, or outside interference. While moving forward or in the reverse run, the picture shall be of adequate light to clearly ascertain the existence of pipe cracks or fractures and their severity in addition to the obvious features such as joints and additional connections to the lateral.

3. The complete periphery of the sewer lateral shall be visible.

4. The camera operation may be cable pulled or self propelling and may record moving forward or on a reverse pull depending on the pipeline conditions. The preferred direction is forward from upstream to downstream.

5. The camera lens shall be kept clean and clear without fogging due to oil, grease, or other water content or debris that obscures the lens. The lens shall be cleaned before proceeding with the recording operation.

6. The camera shall be moved through the sewer lateral at a uniform rate not exceeding 30 feet per minute. The camera shall be stopped for a minimum of 5 seconds at broken or cracked pipe sections, root intrusion, miss aligned joints, connections to the lateral or other pipe defects. The camera shall be stopped for a full minute at any flowing connections and if necessary, pulled back and re-televised to ensure a clear recording of the connection. Camera units shall have adjustable supports and shall be set so the camera axis is generally at the centerline of the pipe.

7. The operator shall clearly identify the location of all wye or tee connections, taps, breaks, roots, or other defects as outlined in Part 2 of these Standards.

8. The total length of the sewer lateral shall be inspected. If the entire length of the sewer lateral cannot be inspected because of obstructions, the CCTV Inspection shall be recorded as a failed inspection. However, the obstruction may be removed and the sewer lateral repaired in accordance with the “Standards for Obtaining a Sewer Lateral Certificate of Compliance Based on Repair or Replacement” and the line re-inspected.

9. The pipe diameter shall be obtained by physical measurement in the upstream (or downstream) cleanout. The pipe material shall be identified.

10. Reverse set ups are to be limited. Potential reverses shall be identified and reported to the City for review. It is intended that the number of reverses are minimized to those absolutely necessary to complete the inspection.

4 PART 2 – CCTV INSPECTION AND REPORTING FORM
The City and District CCTV Inspection and Reporting form is to be utilized in reporting and submitting any CCTV inspection recording to the City for review and the subsequent issuance of a Sewer Lateral Certificate of Compliance. The CCTV inspection report form can have any number of pages, depending on the number of defects found and it is to provide general information and inspection defects. General information including property address, date, time, operator name, and recording ID shall be provided. A diagram or a drawing showing the street, approximate location of the cleanout(s) and building face is to be provided. The diagram may be drawn on the back of the CCTV Inspection Report or prepared on a separate sheet of paper and attached to the inspection report. Pipe diameter, pipe material, shape of the pipe, pipe length, televised footage, counter number at start and end of inspection (if recorded on video tape), CCTV view direction, usage of reverse setups and comments shall be provided. A sample CCTV Inspection Report form and the sewer defect classification nomenclature table are attached to these standards.

PART 3 – CCTV RECORDING AND INSPECTION REPORT REVIEW

1. All CCTV recordings will be reviewed for acceptability of quality based on the minimum standards established and the CCTV Inspection Report will be checked against the visible features shown on the CCTV recording.

2. A CCTV Inspection Report shall be completed in conformance with the standards and appropriate sewer defect nomenclature which best represents the sewer lateral defects found shall be used.

3. Loss of vertical hold which has an impact on the ability to read and interpret the tape, shall constitute a cause of rejection of the recording.

4. In those cases where it is impossible to stop inflow into the sewer lateral during the CCTV inspection and recording because of illicit drainage connections or because the building to which the lateral serves is a facility which must continually use sewer service without interruption or is difficult to control the use of sewer service such as hospitals, care facilities, doctor and dental offices, or a large office, commercial, or industrial complexes, the CCTV inspection is to be performed during off peak usage of the sewer service.

Heavy water flows which obscure the viewing of the inside of the sewer lateral will be cause for rejection of the recording. Surcharging and flooding of the camera lens will not be an excusable condition if it has been artificially created by an upstream surcharge. The existence of flow condition where the camera towing bridle is underwater and the sewer line segment is clearly not in a sag condition may result in a determination that the recording conditions are unacceptable.

5. All sewer lateral line segments must be televised complete from cleanout to cleanout, cleanout to sewer main, or from cleanout to structure entrance on the same recording tape or disk in a continuous run unless a reverse setup is necessary or if the recording time exceeds the capacity of the recording medium.

6. Continuous footage readings for identifying the location of defects must be accurate to within 3 percent tolerance. Defect identifications are to be called out and recorded to the nearest full foot. Any inaccuracy in the continuous footage meter or identified defects or features which cause doubt as to the accuracy of the locations or total length shall render the line segment recording as unacceptable. If the operator has acknowledged that the forward run is unacceptable and has decided to re-televise on the reverse pass, the operator must ensure that the footage markings are correct and that a stop at each feature for 5 seconds is provided to produce a complete recording inspection in the reverse pass.

5 7. Any other unidentified defect such as equipment interference or malfunction causing blurred or obscured images that detracts from the ability to completely and with reliable accuracy read the recording shall constitute a basis for rejection.

STANDARDS FOR OBTAINING A SEWER LATERAL CERTIFICATE OF

COMPLIANCE BASED ON REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF THE PRIVATELY

OWNED PORTION OF A SEWER LATERAL

PURPOSE
This document sets forth the minimum standards to which sewer laterals will be repaired, replaced, or re-lined for the purpose of obtaining a Sewer Lateral Certificate of Compliance in accordance with the requirements set forth in the Ukiah Valley Sanitation District Ordinance No 29 and the City of Ukiah Ordinance No. 1091 codified as Articles 1 and 18 of Division 4, Chapter 2 of the Ukiah Municipal Code.

GENERAL INFORMATION
The Ukiah Valley Sanitation District Ordinance No. 29 and the City of Ukiah Ordinance No. 1091 require the cleaning, inspection, and testing of sewer laterals connected to public sewers and serving residential, multi-family residential, commercial or industrial use properties upon the occurrence of stipulated property transfer transactions or events. In the Ukiah Valley Sanitation District, these transactions or events are, (1) the change of ownership of the property served other than exempted changes of ownership, (2) any repair or replacement of the main sewer to which the lateral is connected, or (3) a determination by the Ukiah Public Utilities Director that the cleaning and testing is required for the protection of public health, safety and welfare. In the City of Ukiah, the transactions or events requiring the cleaning, inspection and testing of a sewer lateral are (1) the application for a new connection to the sewer collection system, (2) the application for a building permit for a remodel of any structure being served by the sewer lateral where the cost of the remodel work exceeds $50,000 in 2007 dollars and adjusted every year for inflation, (3) the application for a building or plumbing permit to install additional toilet facilities on the property served, (4) the application for a change of use on property served from residential to commercial or from non-restaurant commercial to restaurant commercial, (5) the change of ownership of the property served other than exempted transfers, (6) any repair or replacement of the main sewer to which the sewer lateral is connected, or (7) a determination by the Public Utilities Director that the cleaning, inspection, and testing is required for the protection of the public health, safety, and welfare. Nothing in the Ordinances prevents such testing, repair or replacement before a change of ownership. The property owner is responsible for the repair or replacement of the privately owned sewer lateral which has been found through testing and inspection to exhibit conditions which would permit excessive infiltration to enter the sewer collection system or excessive exfiltration. The privately owned sewer is defined as that part of the sewer lateral that is required to be maintained by the property owner in accordance with ordinances adopted by the District and City. Upon completion of the repair or replacement of the sewer lateral, re-inspections are to be conducted until the sewer lateral passes the required testing. Excessive infiltration or exfiltration is defined as exceeding the allowable amount as specified herein. Once the sewer lateral has successfully passed the inspection and testing procedure, the Director of Public Utilities shall execute a Sewer Lateral Certificate of Compliance which shall be filed with the Director of Public Utilities and the Building Department having jurisdiction and recorded with the County Recorder of Mendocino County.

There are two categories of Sewer Lateral Certification of Compliance for the continued service of a lateral based upon materials and performance: (1) A 10 year certificate for existing laterals that do not conform to the current material standards for new laterals as established in the plumbing code adopted by the City of Ukiah and does not exfiltrate at a rate greater than that established in the

2 exfiltration pressure test for existing laterals (refer to the provisions specified in Specified Pressure Tests of these Standards). (2) A 25 year certificate for existing, existing repaired or existing replaced sewer laterals that meet the current material and testing standards for new laterals as established in the plumbing code adopted by the City of Ukiah. For a 25 year certificate, the sewer lateral must be watertight.

An alternative testing and inspection procedure for a 10 year certificate consisting only of a CCTV inspection of the sewer lateral is applicable when there is a qualified change of ownership of the property served and the potential for hydrostatic conditions around the sewer lateral do not exist.

Currently, all property located within the City limits are within the zone designated as having the potential for hydrostatic pressures.

In the Ukiah Valley Sanitation District there are five (5) exemptions to the cleaning, inspection, and testing requirements set forth in the District’s Ordinance other than certain transfers of interest in real property and they are (1) where sewer laterals are more than 500 feet from the streams or other surface waters which flow into the Russian River, (2) sewer laterals that have been inspected within the last twenty five (25) years where the lateral is made of PVC, metal, or other modern material meeting the Uniform Plumbing Code, (3) sewer laterals that have been inspected within the last ten (10) years where the lateral is not made of PVC, metal, or other modern material meeting the Uniform Plumbing Code, (4) Sewer laterals that were last installed or replaced within the last twenty five (25) years where the lateral is made of PVC, metal, or other modern material meeting the Uniform Plumbing Code, and (5) any building where the Director of Public Utilities determines that testing and or repairs have been made in accordance with the ordinance within the last five (5) years. Certificates of Compliance will be issued indicating that the sewer lateral is exempt from the inspection and testing provisions of the District Ordinance if the sewer lateral meets the exemptions stated above. However, the Certificate of Compliance for an exemption expires upon the occurrence of an event requiring the inspection or testing or upon the occurrence of another exempted event.

For those properties within the City of Ukiah and not within the District, a property owner may apply for a Sewer Lateral Certificate of Compliance without inspection when (1) the property owner provides evidence, satisfactory to the Director of Public Utilities, that the sewer lateral serving the property is ten (10) years old or less, (2) the property owner provides evidence, satisfactory to the Director of Public Utilities, that the sewer lateral was repaired or replaced and passed inspection within the previous ten (10) years, or (3) the property owner provides evidence, satisfactory to the Director of Public Utilities, that the sewer lateral has passed an inspection within the past five (5) years.

Certificates of Compliance will be issued indicating that the sewer lateral is exempt from the inspection and testing provisions of the District Ordinance if the sewer lateral meets the exemptions stated above. However, the Certificate of Compliance for an exemption expires upon the occurrence of an event requiring the inspection or testing or upon the occurrence of another exempted event.

STANDARDS FOR REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF PRIVATELY OWNED LATERALS Approved Repair Methods and Materials

1. Materials used in the repair or replacement of existing sewer laterals which have failed to pass an inspection and/or test shall be made of pipe materials, fittings, couplings, and other joining materials which have been approved for use pursuant to the current edition of the Plumbing Code adopted by the City at the time of the inspection and/or testing, and as modified and specified in these Standards.

2. Sewer Laterals constructed of an approved pipe material which have cracked pipe sections where the pipe has retained its original shape and does not show excessive deflection and is not subjected to hydrostatic pressures either outside or inside the pipe may be repaired with an approved cured in place spot repair lining.

3 3. Sewer laterals which are subjected to hydrostatic water conditions either inside or outside the pipe and which have not passed a required pressure test, may be repaired with an approved cured in place pipe lining system installed within the entire length of the sewer lateral from the wye in the sewer main to the sewer lateral cleanout closest to the building footing or replaced in its entirety with approved pipe materials. At the conclusion of the repair, replacement, or relining the complete sewer lateral must pass specified pressure tests.

4. The replacement of damaged pipe sections with approved materials, fittings, and couplings is only acceptable where the sewer lateral is not subjected to hydrostatic pressures either inside or outside of the pipe unless the complete sewer lateral from the wye at the main to the cleanout closest to the structure being served can pass the required pressure test after the repairs are complete.

5. Whenever 50% or less of the sewer lateral is repaired, replaced, or re-lined (Minor or No Repair), cleanouts shall be provided to grade to facilitate the inspection and testing at either the junction of the building drain and the sewer lateral at a point approved by the permitting agency, typically within 2 feet of the structure being served by the lateral, or at or near the property line at a point and in a manner approved by the Director of Public Works if in the public way, or, at a point and in a manner approved by the permitting agency if not in the public way and on private property. For that portion of the sewer lateral being repaired, replaced, or re-lined, cleanouts shall also be provided to grade at intervals not to exceed 100 feet in run of a cleaning snake to reach the adjacent run of a cleaning snake, and for each aggregate horizontal change in direction exceeding 135 degrees in accordance with the City Standard Plan No. 213 and the City adopted Plumbing Code.

6. Whenever a sewer lateral is more than 50% replaced or re-lined (Major Repair of Replacement), cleanouts shall be provided to grade in accordance with the City Standard Plan No. 213 and the City adopted Plumbing Code which include all of the following locations: A) At the junction of the building drain and the sewer lateral at a point approved by the permitting agency, typically within 2 feet of the structure being served by the lateral. B) At intervals not to exceed 100 feet in run of a cleaning snake to reach the adjacent run of a cleaning snake, and for each aggregate horizontal change in direction exceeding 135. C) At or near the property line at a point and in a manner approved by the Director of Public Works if in the public way, or, at a point and in a manner approved by the permitting agency if not in the public way and on private property.

7. Approved trenchless technologies such as “pipe bursting” may be utilized to replace sewer laterals.

8. Spot repairs consisting of the placement of metal or other sheeting materials and concrete or mortar will not be accepted.

9. Re-mortaring of joints as a repair method is not acceptable without prior approval of the permitting agency.

10. Pipe and pipe couplings shall be joined and installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations. Pipe repairs shall be made in a manner which provides the least number of pipe joints.

Types of Pipe Damage that Must Be Repaired or Pipe Sections Replaced

1. Where the sewer lateral is not subjected to hydrostatic conditions and the exfiltration test is not required (allowed CCTV Inspection), the pipe repairs must be made for the following pipe conditions:

4 a. A separation or offset in the pipe joint including any fish mouth condition at the joint. b. Holes or cracks in the pipe bell, barrel, or coupling. c. For PVC pipe, a deflection in the pipe cross-section exceeding 1/4“. d. Failed trench section causing excessive belly or sump condition in a pipe section causing retention of water of one inch or more.
e. Root penetration into the pipe.

2. Where the sewer lateral is subjected to hydrostatic conditions and the pipe repair option selected is pipe lining, repairs shall be made to the sewer lateral prior to the installation of the liner and the repair shall correct the following deficiencies:
a. A separation or offset in the pipe joint including any fish mouth condition at the joint which the lining system cannot bridge based on the liner manufacturer’s recommendations.
b. Holes in the pipe bell, barrel, or coupling that the lining system cannot bridge. c. For PVC pipe, a deflection in the pipe cross-section exceeding 1/4“. d. Failed trench section causing excessive belly or sump condition in a pipe section causing retention of water of one inch or more.
e. Root penetration into the pipe.
f. Other lateral defects which the manufacturer of the lining system recommends be corrected prior to the placement of the liner.

Hydrostatic Pressure Conditions Defined

1. Hydrostatic pressures exist around the sewer lateral when the lateral is completely or partially submerged by groundwater or exists within the lateral when discharges to the lateral exceeds the capacity of the pipe or is subject to water head.

2. The following circumstances shall be prima facia evidence that the sewer lateral is subject to hydrostatic pressures:
a. The property being served by the public sewer collection system is located East of State Street and West of the Russian River; located in FEMA flood Zones A and B; located adjacent to any property, street, or private road where subsurface drains are installed; located west of State Street, south of Lovers Lane and north of Meadow Brook, Oak Court, and Spanish Canyon Drive; and if any portion of the property is located within 100 feet of the bank of a stream, creek or drainage ditch and any portion of the lateral is below the elevation of the nearest bank.
b. For commercial or industrial uses, at any time the discharge to the sewer lateral exceeds the following flows for a 3 inch diameter sewer pipe at the indicated slopes or if there exists on the property a plumbing fixture that has the indicated capacity:

1. 50 gpm w/ slope of ¼” per ft

2. 35 gmp w/ slope of 1/8” per ft
c. For commercial or industrial uses, at any time the discharge to the sewer lateral exceeds the following flows for a 4 inch diameter sewer pipe at the indicated slopes or if there exists on the property a plumbing fixture that has the indicated capacity:

1. 100 gmp w/ slope of ¼” per ft

2. 75 gpm w/ slope of 1/8” per ft
d. For commercial or industrial uses, at any time the discharge to the sewer lateral exceeds the following flows for a 6 inch diameter sewer pipe at the indicated slopes or if there exists on the property a plumbing fixture that has the indicated capacity indicated:

1. 310 gpm w/ slope of ¼” per ft

3. All pressure laterals shall be pressure tested at 1.5 times the operating pressure and no more than a 1% pressure loss shall be detected within a 10 minute test

5 Specified Pressure Tests
When Hydrostatic pressure conditions can exist outside or inside of the sewer lateral at any time, the sewer lateral shall be pressure tested by the exfiltration method by plugging the end of the sewer lateral at its point of connection to the public sewer and completely filling the sewer lateral with water from the lowest to the highest point thereof. To perform a pressure test, the sewer lateral must have a cleanout located near the building footing which is served by the sewer lateral or at the property line. If the cleanout does not exist, one must be installed by a qualified owner/builder or by a licensed contractor under a plumbing permit issued by the City Building Department if the property is located within the City Limits and outside the District or issued by the Public Utilities Department if the property is located within the District whether the property is located in the City or County” as part of the test procedure. The contractor or qualified owner may perform preliminary pressure tests prior to completing the backfill operations; however, the final pressure test shall be performed after the completion of the backfill operations. A video inspection of the downstream side of the test plug must be performed during the exfiltration pressure test to confirm that the test plug has sealed.

1. The exfiltration pressure test for a gravity sewer lateral shall be performed with potable or recycled water by filling the sewer lateral to a level 3” below the lowest floor drain or fixture connection to the building drain system up to a maximum water column of 33 feet above the test plug in the lateral at the face of the main or in the lateral wye fitting at the main when a wye fitting exists. If necessary, a stand pipe shall be fitted to the top of the cleanout to achieve the required testing water level. The testing water level shall also be at least higher than the elevation of the back edge of the public sidewalk at the point above the approximate location of the sewer lateral, or the top of curb if there is no public sidewalk or the edge of pavement if there is no curb or public sidewalk. An approved backwater valve and cleanout shall be installed at the property line if there is any gravity drained plumbing fixture in the structure being served that is below the elevation of the back edge of the public sidewalk at the point above the approximate location of the sewer lateral, or the top of curb if there is no public sidewalk or the edge of pavement if there is no curb or public sidewalk. A lateral may be tested in segments subject to the approval of the inspector. When segmental pipe testing is performed, each tested pipe segment must not exceed the allowed leakage rate.

2. The sewer lateral will have passed the pressure test if the testing water level within the testing standpipe does not drop more than the indicated rate for the given diameter of testing standpipe indicated below. The allowed leakage per sewer lateral is 212.5 gpd or 8.85 gph or .15 gpm or 34.08 cubic inches per minute.

This section of the Sanitary System Management Plan (SSMP provides a summary of the City’s Overflow Emergency Response Plan (OERP). The complete plan is attached in Appendix 6-A.

This section fulfills the OERP requirement of the State Water Resource Control Board (SWRCB, Element 6) SSMP requirements. Further, the OERP was approved by the City Council and District Board of Directors on April 15 and 16, 2009, respectively. Approval documents are appended to the OERP.

6.2 Regulatory Requirements for Overflow Emergency Response Plan The summarized SWRCB requirements for the OERP element of the SSMP are as follows:

The City shall develop and implement an overflow emergency response plan that identifies measures to protect public health and the environment. The response plan should be developed as a stand-alone document and summarized in the SSMP. At a minimum, this plan must include the following:
a. Proper notification procedures so that the primary responders and regulatory agencies are informed of all SSOs [sanitary sewer overflows] in a timely manner; b. A program to ensure appropriate response to all overflows; c. Procedures to ensure prompt notification to appropriate regulatory agencies and other potentially affected entities (e.g., health agencies, regional water boards, water suppliers, etc.) of all SSOs that potentially affect public health or reach the

waters of the State in accordance with the Master Reclamation Permit (MRP). All SSOs shall be reported in accordance with the MRP, the California Water Code, other State law, and other applicable Regional Water Board WDR or National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit requirements. The SSMP should identify the officials who will receive immediate notification; d. Procedures to ensure that appropriate staff and contractor personnel are aware of and follow the Emergency Response Plan and are appropriately trained; e. Procedures to address emergency operations, such as traffic and crowd control and other necessary response activities; and
f. A program to ensure that all reasonable steps are taken to contain untreated wastewater and prevent discharge of untreated wastewater to waters of the United States and minimize or correct any adverse impact on the environment resulting from the SSOs, including such accelerated or additional monitoring as may be necessary to determine the nature and impact of the discharge.

6.3 Overflow Emergency Response Plan Discussion
The City of Ukiah initially prepared its “Spill Response and Notification Plan” in January 2002 and then updated it in June 2008. The City has retained the services of Winzler & Kelly to develop a Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP) to in part, manage and improve the condition of its wastewater collection system by implementing measures to reduce SSOs. The City’s Spill Contingency Plan was reviewed and revised as part of this SSMP Element 6 to address current SSO reporting requirements. This new “Overflow Emergency Response Plan” (OERP) – submitted to the RWQCB on September 30, 2008 – provides an effective overflow response plan to minimize any health risks or damage to private property or the environment from SSOs. The complete OERP document is found in Appendix 6-A and includes the following sections:

I. Authority
II. General
III. Overflow Response Procedures
IV. Public Advisory Procedures
V. Regulatory Agency Notification Plan
VI. Media Notification Procedures
VII. Distribution and Maintenance of OERP

6.3.1 SSO Notification, Response and Impact Mitigation
Section III of the OERP explains sewer overflow response procedures from initial notification through field work and internal reporting and includes the following subsections:

A. Receipt ofInformationRegardingan SSO
This subsection describes the procedures and contact information for receiving an overflow report from outside parties or the City personnel. A sewer overflow can be reported to the City staff during the regular business hours at a main phone number which is published in local phone books and on the City website (www.cityofukiah.com). The City also has an automated answering system to receive any calls during non-working hours, weekends, and holidays. A complete list of the internal officials who will receive immediate SSO notification and their

contact information is represented in the OERP – Appendix B, “Sanitary Sewer Overflow Action Plan.” The role of each person during an emergency has been established in a flow chart and is clear and concise.

B. Dispatch ofAppropriate Crews to Site ofSewer Overflow This subsection illustrates the protocols for immediately dispatching a crew to any site of a reported SSO for investigation and response. The City’s OERP includes procedures for the notification of appropriate staff needed to respond to an SSO in the event extra crews are needed or if the SSO occurs outside normal City working hours. Guidelines for documenting any private or public property damages are explained and coordination with a hazardous material response team is also provided.

C. Overflow Correction, Containment, andClean-Up
In this subsection, specific actions to be performed by the crews during an SSO are described.

The City’s policy is to be constantly on alert and ready to take all steps possible to prevent the SSO from reaching the storm drains, flood control channels, or waters of the State and/or United States, all in accordance with the City’s discharge requirements.

Upon arrival at an SSO event, the City crew will initiate the following procedures:

Determine the cause of overflow;
Investigate the need for additional assistance or equipment; Notify the dispatcher to call the Mendocino County Environmental Health Department if private property is impacted;
Take immediate actions to stop the overflow.

The SSO cleanup procedures for different situations, such as a trunk sewer stoppage, pump station failure, or wet weather overflow, are detailed in OERP Appendix B. Under most circumstances, the City can handle all response actions with its own maintenance forces and equipment; however, circumstances may arise where the City would utilize its list of preapproved local vendors to acquire additional equipment. Local contractors would also be utilized for additional labor resources. A list of equipment vendors and contractors is provided in the OERP – Appendix B, Table 4.

This subsection also explains sampling laboratory tests requirements whenever overflow reaches surface waters.

D. OverflowReport
The City has a Sanitary Sewer Overflow Report form (OERP Appendix A) that must be completed for both internal and regulatory agency notification of SSOs. This subsection covers the information to be included in that form, such as date and location of overflow, start and stop time of the spill, estimate of the rate of SSO, indication whether the discharge reached water surfaces and cause of overflow. The Water/Sewer Maintenance Supervisor is responsible to complete the form and promptly forward it to Wastewater Treatment Plant Supervisor in order to notify the regulatory agencies when the overflow is eliminated.

E. CustomerSatisfaction
In this subsection, the City staff is required to follow up in person or by telephone with the parties reporting the overflow and fill out a survey questionnaire. The survey is an assessment for response procedures, SSO control and site clean up, public notification and regulatory agency reporting. The survey is provided in OERP Appendix D.

6.3.2 SSO Public Notification
Section IV of the OERP describes the actions the City of Ukiah takes to perform public advisory actions and limit public access to areas potentially affected by an SSO. The Water/Sewer Maintenance Supervisor is responsible to determine whether temporary signage is required and, if so, the Mendocino County Environmental Health Department will be notified.

Media notification procedures are explained in Section VI of the OERP. The Water/Sewer Maintenance Supervisor is responsible to notify the Public Information Officer (PIO). The PIO is the “first-line” of response to the media for any overflow.

6.3.3 SSO Regulatory Agency Reporting
Section V of the OERP establishes procedures that the City of Ukiah follows to provide formal notice to the regulatory agencies in the event of an SSO. The City is required to report all spills, regardless of size, to the North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), even if the spill is completely contained. Criteria for reporting an SSO to the Office of Emergency Services (OES), Mendocino County Environmental Health Department and California Department of Fish and Game are specified depending on the size of the SSO and whether or not the discharge affects surface water and/or results in fish kills. A complete list of the regulatory agencies and notification requirements is provided in OERP Appendix E.

The City is required to submit a certification to the RWQCB that OES and the Mendocino County Department of Environmental Health have been notified of any sewer discharge to a drainage channel or surface water. That certification is provided in OERP Appendix F.

6.3.4 Distribution and Maintenance of OERP
Section VII of the OERP provides guidelines for the distribution of the OERP, as well as an overview of the City procedures for ongoing review and updates to the OERP. Staff training is also discussed.

6.4 SSMP Program Audit – Overflow Emergency Response Plan Element 10, SSMP Audits, serves to record the evolution of the SSMP elements. Per SWRCB requirements, the entire SSMP must be audited at least every two years, which is the current audit plan for the City. To assist in this auditing process, following is a summary of accomplishments and identified potential future program improvements relative to this element.

6.4.1 Accomplishments
Since the inception of the SSMP process, the City has taken affirmative steps to enhance its emergency response and reporting procedures for sanitary sewer overflows. Field crews and office staff have reviewed procedures noted in the OERP and are prepared to more efficiently respond to future SSOs and comply with reporting requirements set forth by State order.

6.4.2 Future Program Improvements
The following activities are current OERP audit goals:

The City will implement the procedures outlined in the OERP, including internal and external training of staff. The first training is scheduled for September 2009; additional training will be conducted as needed.

Further, the City will update the OERP per State and regional requirements for reporting SSOs.

City staff will perform this activity on an ongoing basis.

Additional program elements that will be implemented by the City include the following:

The City will increase its use of GIS resources for both the sanitary sewer and storm drainage systems to identify potential SSO locations, strategize for future system improvements, and provide mapping resource for field crews; The City and District will consider the inclusion of a detailed condition assessment of the collection system (See SSMP Element 4) for future fiscal year budgets. Enhanced characterization of the collection system will enable the City to target problem areas for repair and/or replacement projects that could reduce the potential for a SSO; and The City and District will consider the inclusion of additional resources directed towards the FOG Program (See SSMP Element 7) for future fiscal year budgets. As with condition assessment, the goal of the FOG Program is to target problem areas in addition to physical characterization of FOG-generating facilities (i.e., Food Service Establishments). The approach also includes outreach to the public and education regarding the negative impact of SSOs on the environment.

How can you help protect your
plumbing and our environment?• Never pour grease down sinks, toilets, or any drains.
• Pour grease into a can for disposal in the
trash. You can make your own grease can using any empty metal can (not plastic, which melts) and disposable, heat-resistant oven bags. Just toss the bags in the trash (after grease cools) and reuse the can. [Note: Please use caution when pouring hot grease or wait for it to cool slightly. Hot grease can burn skin.] • Scrape grease and food scraps into a can or
the trash for disposal.
• Use strainers in sinks to catch food scraps,
and empty the strainers into the trash.
• Don’t rely on a garbage disposal to get rid of
grease—it grinds food into smaller pieces, but it doesn’t keep grease from going down the drain. • Wipe cookware and dishes before washing.

Commercial additives in detergents only dissolve grease temporarily. • Clean kitchen exhaust system filters routinely.• Talk with your friends and neighbors about the grease problem, so that the community is aware of the risk. • Call KUB at 524-2911 if you have any questions about grease. You may also e-mail [email protected] if you have questions about sewer system operations and maintenance.

Safety TipIf you have a grease-related sewer backup, avoid contact or wash with soap and water. The Centers for Disease Con trol and Prevention (CDC) says skin contact isn’t a serious health risk, but swallowing bacteria or a virus may cause illness. So al ways wash your hands before preparing or eating food, after using the bathroom (or helping another as a caregiver), and after touching ob jects exposed to a backup. For more information, see www.bt.cdc.gov/disasters/floods/sanitation.asp.

Don’t pour cooking grease
down drains.

Why is cooking grease a problem?
If you pour cooking grease down your drains, it may build up, block your pipes, and cause rancid odors or messy, costly sewage backups in your home.It can also clog KUB’s sewer lines. In fact, grease is the leading cause of dry weather sewer overflows, which are a potential threat to our environment.And don’t believe the old wives’ tale about running hot water after pouring grease down the drain: It doesn’t work. The grease eventually cools, then congeals and coats pipes. When enough grease builds up, it can block your plumbing or KUB’s sewer lines.Where is grease produced?Restaurants, condominiums, apartment buildings, homes, schools, churches, food-processing plants, shopping malls, hospitals, hotels, and many more locations all produce grease.Grease is a by-product of cooking and is found in things like these: • Meat fats • Food scraps • Lard • Baking goods • Cooking oil • Sauces • Shortening • Dairy products • Butter and margarine The easiest way to prevent greaserelated sewage overflows is to keep cooking grease out of the sewer system.

Cooking grease is the No. 1 causeof sewer backups in homes.

Never pour grease down sink drains or other drains. Scrape grease and food scraps from all cookware and dishes into a can or the trash for disposal.

What problems are caused by grease?• Clogged drains or toilets.• Sewage backups into your home.• Sewer overflows in neighborhood parks, yards, and streets.
• Rancid odors.• Expensive cleanup, repair, and replacement of damaged property.
• Potential contact with bacteria and viruses that
can cause illness.
• Higher operating and maintenance costs, poten -
tially resulting in higher sewer bills for you.

How can you help Can the Grease?KUB is giving out Can the Grease cans to raise awareness about disposing of grease in a way that’s good for your plumbing, KUB’s sewer system, and our environment.But you don’t need an “official” can to get started. A metal coffee can with a plastic lid or empty metal soup or vegetable cans make great grease cans. Line your can with disposable heat-resistant oven bags. Throw the liners away (after grease cools) and reuse the can.

About the Sewage
Overflow Issue
What is a sewage overflow?
During nearly every rainfall or snow
melt, excess water gets into the
municipal sewer systems, which results
in untreated sewage overflowing into
area streams and rivers. These
overflows violate the Environmental
Protection Agency’s federal Clean
Water Act.

What is the Clean Water Act and
how does it affect our region?
The Clean Water Act was enacted in
1977 and prohibits any person or entity
from discharging pollutants, such as
sewage, from a point source into
waterways unless a permit is obtained.

Under this Act, communities in the
ALCOSAN service area must eliminate
all overflows from separate sanitary
sewer systems and significantly reduce
overflows from combined sewer
systems.

What is the difference between a
separate sanitary sewer system
and a combined sewer system?
A separate sanitary sewer system is
designed to carry only wastewater to
the treatment plant. Stormwater is
carried in a separate system, and is not
transported to the treatment plant.

A:

Q:

A:

Q:

A:

In a combined sewer system, both wastewater and stormwater are carried in the same pipes. Of the 83 communities in the ALCOSAN service area, 26 have been identified as having primarily a combined sewer system within their municipal boundaries. The remaining 57 communities have separate sanitary sewage collection systems.

How bad is the sewage overflow problem in the region?
Each year, these overflows affect Pittsburgh’s rivers at least 70 days during the boating season (May 15- October 1) making water unacceptable for recreational contact. In addition, the overflows affect Allegheny County’s primary source of drinking water. (Nearly 90 percent of Allegheny County residents get their drinking water from Pittsburgh’s rivers.) Municipalities in the ALCOSAN service area could face a potential $2 billion investment in order to correct the problem. However, the best way to trim this $2 billion investment cost is for municipalities to work together on a long-term solution. Local municipal officials must take a serious look at the cost of maintaining ownership of this aged and deteriorating infrastructure. One solution might be to transfer ownership and operation of a municipality’s collection system to a larger entity.

How does the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) plan to enforce the Clean Water Act?
The EPA recently distributed a draft administrative consent orders to municipal officials in all 83 ALCOSAN communities outlining the activities, such as cleaning and televising the sewers that municipalities must accomplish over several years (2004-2010) to begin complying with the Clean Water Act. For communities with separate sanitary sewer systems, the Allegheny County Health Department (ACHD) will enforce compliance with the order and in combined sewer communities, the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) will be the enforcement agent on behalf of the EPA.

Q:

A:

Q:

A:

What is an administrative
consent order?
This EPA administrative consent order
is a legal document that is signed by
both the community and an enforcement agency that binds the community to complete specific activities that will
lead to the elimination or reduction of
sewage overflows in their municipal
collection system. If the community
does not meet the requirements of the
order, the enforcement agency will
impose penalties and/or fines.

What does the administrative
consent order require?
The administrative consent order
requires communities to address the
sewage overflow issue through specific
activities, such as mapping, cleaning
and televising the sewer system and
making critical repairs. Then communities must complete flow monitoring, which indicates how much wastewater
(and in some cases, stormwater) the
sewage system is carrying during both
dry and wet weather. This information
will help communities develop a longterm wet weather control plan, in cooperation with ALCOSAN to sustain
rehabilitation efforts into the future.

How will communities financially
accomplish the tasks required?
Fixing the sewage overflow problem in
the region’s municipal collection
system could cost up to $2 billion for
ALCOSAN communities. However,
through the 3 Rivers Wet Weather
Basin Groups, municipalities are
exploring ways to share resources and
costs to fix the problem using fewer
dollars. In addition, 3RWWDP receives
some federal, state and local funding to
help support the communities. Communities are encouraged to begin budgeting for activities over several
years to help lessen the impact on their
municipality’s annual budget.

What is my role as a homeowner?
It is important to become educated on the sewage overflow issue because every individual can play a role in helping to solve the problem. As a homeowner, you are responsible for the maintenance and repair of your house lateral, a pipe that connects your home to the public sewer system. A cracked or deteriorated lateral or one filled with tree roots can allow groundwater to seep into the system contributing to the problem. In addition, if your community has a separate sanitary sewer system, you may be required to fix any improper connections, such as downspouts, driveway drains or sump pumps connected directly to the sewer system. The stormwater collected from these devices must be drained to your property or directly connected to a separate stormwater system.

Will sewage rates go up?
Yes, it is likely that nearly all communities in the ALCOSAN service area will raise their sewage rates at some point to help pay for the cost of correcting the sewage overflow problem. Historically, the region’s sewage rates have been among the lowest in the country. In addition, communities working through the 3 Rivers Wet Weather Basin Groups will be able to minimize their sewage rate increases by participating in the Basin Groups’ cooperative projects.

What role will 3 Rivers Wet Weather play in helping
communities comply with the orders?
3 Rivers Wet Weather has taken a lead role in helping communities tackle this problem through a basin-wide approach. The organization helped to facilitate the communication between the municipalities and the regulatory agencies which led to a feasible consent order signed by 100% of the communities in early 2004. In addition, 3RWW has funded and coordinated a system-wide mapping project to locate and map more than 100,000 manholes and structures throughout the system. 3RWW also plans to coordinate the flow monitoring requirements of the order across the ALCOSAN service area to help build the foundation for regional approaches in the future.

Are other regions of the United States struggling with the same problems?
Yes, primarily older cities in the northeastern United States are struggling with the sewage overflow issue because they, too, have old and deteriorated sewer systems. However, Allegheny County is unique because it is the only location in the country in which 83 municipalities own and operate their own sewage collection system, and all of these systems feed into one sewage treatment facility (ALCOSAN).

City of Dallas Publication # 07/08-42
Fats, Oils and Grease (FOG), the residue left over from cooking meats such as bacon that hardens after it cools, can cause problems when poured down the drain and clog pipes in your home. Did you know FOG can also clog the sewer pipes under the streets that take the wastewater from your house to the treatment plant? If that happens, the wastewater can back up and come to the surface and pollute the environment.

Disposal of Fats, Oils and Grease,
and Pharmaceuticals
It doesn‘t stop at the kitchen sink….

Fats, Oils
and
Grease
Disposal of
Pharmaceuticals
Pharmaceuticals
flushed down
the toilet end up
in the wastewater system
and cannot be treated at the
wastewater treatment plants.

Expired or unused medication
should therefore not go down
the drain or toilet, but should
be thrown in the trash.

Mix the prescription drugs with an
undesirable substance such as used
kitty litter or coffee grounds. Then put
the mix in empty cans or sealable bags
and throw away in the trash. This
further ensures that the drugs are not
diverted or accidentally ingested by
children or pets.

By correctly disposing of
pharmaceuticals, you reduce the risk of
improper drug use in your home while
protecting the environment.

Manteca, Aceites y Grasa (FOG por sus siglas en inglés), es el residuo que queda al cocinar carnes como el tocino. El residuo se endurece al enfriar causando problemas si es vertido por el resumidero ya que congestiona la tubería en su hogar. ¿Sabia usted que FOG también puede congestionar el sistema de drenaje que lleva las aguas residuales hasta la planta tratadora de aguas negras? Si esto ocurre, las aguas residuales
pueden retornar y salir a la superficie contaminando el medio ambiente.

SPILL EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLAN
Spill Categories
Category 1
A category 1 spill is a spill of any volume of sewage from or caused by a sanitary sewer system regulated under the 2022 SSS WDR that results in a discharge to:
• A surface water, including a surface water body that contains no flow or volume of water; or
• A drainage conveyance system that discharges to surface waters when the sewage is not fully captured and returned to the sanitary sewer system or disposed of properly.

Any spill volume not recovered from a drainage conveyance system is considered a discharge to surface water, unless the drainage conveyance system discharges to a dedicated stormwater infiltration basin or facility.

A spill from a City/District-owned and/or operated lateral that discharges to a surface water is a Category 1 spill; the City/District shall report all Category 1 spills per section 3.1 of Attachment E1 (Notification, Monitoring, Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements) of the 2022 SSS WDR.

Category 2
A Category 2 spill is a spill of 1,000 gallons or greater, from or caused by a sanitary sewer system regulated under the 2022 SSS WDR that does not discharge to a surface water.

A spill of 1,000 gallons or greater that spills out of a lateral and is caused by a failure or blockage in the sanitary sewer system, is a Category 2 spill.

Category 3
A Category 3 spill is a spill of equal to or greater than 50 gallons and less than 1,000 gallons, from or caused by a sanitary sewer system regulated under the 2022 SSS WDR that does not discharge to a surface water.

A spill of equal to or greater than 50 gallons and less than 1,000 gallons, that spills out of a lateral and is caused by a failure or blockage in the sanitary sewer system is a Category 3 spill.

Category 4
A Category 4 spill is a spill of less than 50 gallons, from or caused by a sanitary sewer system regulated under the 2022 SSS WDR that does not discharge to a surface water.

A spill of less than 50 gallons that spills out of a lateral and is caused by a failure or blockage in the sanitary sewer system is a Category 4 spill.

SPILL EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLAN
1 AUTHORITY
The City of Ukiah (City) owns and manages approximately 44 miles of sewer collection pipelines and one pump station within its corporate limits and manages another 46 miles of sewer collection pipelines and two pump stations owned by the Ukiah Valley Sanitation District (District). The District’s collection system serves both unincorporated areas of Mendocino County and portions of the City which were annexed in the last 30 years.

This Spill Emergency Response Plan (SERP) is prepared to ensure that City of Ukiah personnel follow established guidelines for containing, cleaning-up, decontaminating and reporting sanitary sewer spills which may occur within the City of Ukiah and Ukiah Valley Sanitation District service area.

The City will follow reporting procedures with regard to sewer spills as set forth by the California State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB), Monitoring and Reporting requirements stipulated under Order WQ 2022-0103-DWQ (2022 Waste Discharge Requirements for Sanitary Sewer Systems or 2022 SSS WDR) and the NPDES Permit/Waste Discharge Requirements Order No. R1-2024-0016.
2 GENERAL
The SERP is designed to ensure that every report of any spill (sewer or any other pollutant) is immediately dispatched to the appropriate City personnel. The purpose of this approach is so that the effects of the spill or overflow can be minimized with respect to impacts to public health and adverse effects on beneficial uses and water quality of surface waters and customer service. In the event of an emergency and/or when it is found that the spill is not a sanitary sewer overflow, the City will utilize its resources to mitigate problems and will coordinate with the responsible agencies. Refer to Section 3.2 – Part 6.

The SERP further includes provisions to ensure safety pursuant to the directions provided by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), and that notification and reporting is made to the appropriate local, state and federal authorities when applicable. For purposes of this SERP, “confirmed sewage spill” is also sometimes referred to as “sanitary sewer overflow,” “overflow,” or “SSO.”
The City initially prepared its “Overflow Response and Notification Plan” in January 2002 and then updated it in June 2008. The plan was subsequently updated in September 2008 to meet WDR requirements for the “Overflow Emergency Response Plan” (OERP), and again in December 2020. The SERP, previously known as the OERP, was last revised in August 2025 to meet the requirements stipulated under the 2022 SSS WDR.

2.1 OBJECTIVES
The primary objectives of the SERP are to protect public health and the environment, and to comply with regulatory requirements relating to confirmed sewage spills as set forth in the City’s NPDES Permit/Waste Discharge Requirements (Order No. R1-2024-0016) and the 2022 SSS WDR.

Additional objectives of the SERP are as follows:

CITY OF UKIAH AND UKIAH VALLEY SANITATION DISTRICT August 2025 | 8

SPILL EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLAN
 Provide appropriate customer service;
 Protect treatment plant and collection system personnel;  Protect the collection system, treatment facilities, and all appurtenances;  Protect private and public property beyond the collection and treatment facilities;  Provide clearly documented policies, procedures and guidelines for City staff to reference and follow in the event of a sanitary sewer overflow.

This plan shall not supersede existing emergency plans or standard operating procedures (SOPs) unless directed by City of Ukiah, Director of Public Works & City Engineer, and shall, in most cases, refer to these plans and will work in conjunction rather than conflict with them.

This section of the SSMP identifies City staff responsible for implementing the SSMP, responding to spill events, and meeting the spill reporting requirements. This section also includes the designation of the Authorized Representative to meet SWRCB requirements for completing and certifying spill reports.
